T-34 탱크의 차체를 이용한 루마니아의 원유및 가스 유전지대의
화재 진압을 위해 특별히 설계된 소방차 브리즈(Breeze)
The Big Wind - Designed by a team of Hungarian engineers originally
as a means of mass decontamination for Cold War-era tanks
in the event of a CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear) attack,
this fire-fighting chimera has found a surprising niche in the modern world: putting out oil well fires.
The Big Wind is one part T-34 tank and two parts MiG 21 jet engine.
Specifically its a T-34 tank chassis with a pair of Mig 21 jet engines mounted to its roof.
Windy needs three crewmen: a driver inside the tank to steer and stop it;
a controller in a rear cabin at the back of the platform to run the jet engines
and the water jets; and a fire chief who walks about 15 feet away,
issuing orders to the two other crew members through a remote-control unit.
When the water is turned on, the six nozzles above the MiG engines unleashing
an immense blast of water that mingles with the jet exhaust
and becomes a ferocious spray of steam.
The water is moving at a maximum rate of 220 gallons of water a second,
or twice what an average U.S. household uses in 24 hours.
(If you hooked up this machine's water pump to a typical suburban swimming pool,
it would suck it dry in about 50 seconds.)
