Note the elaborate safety cage, including an unusual folding windscreen protection wire mesh attachment.

Six high pressure nozzles on the sparge pipe for pump and roll, and another two built into the cage on the roof for self-protection.

With a 13 tonne gross weight, the U400 can handle quite a large water tank. This one looks to be carrying around 3, 000 liters, nicely balanced in the center of the chassis. Enough for quite a long duration engagement before needing a refill!
