That is a formidable rig - are all 4 axles powered?

Looks to be USA manufacture - no blue lights - so, who was the builder, for US Air Force spec?

Thanks Graham, smashing set of pictures, last time I was there it was all ugly green Oshkosh contraptions! This is quite pleasing on the eye.

Pat,
From seeing pictures of identical machines I believe it to be an Emergency One/Teledyne P23 built for the USAF.
