The truck is carrying 6 special containers in the back of the superstructure which can be un-/loaded with a hydraulic platform. These so called modules are loaded with additional equipment for rescue operations such as hydraulic jaws of life and cylinders, breathing apparatus, chain saws and illuminating equipment.
