The record

Helicopter and Aviation Services provide temporary helipads and fire cover for helicopter operations at events, shows and racecourses, and run small Land Rover fire vehicles that can follow the helicopters onto grass. ukemergency.co.uk's airport-fire gallery photographed one at a showground: a Defender 110 truck cab in fluorescent yellow with two rows of red battenburg along the doors and bed sides, callsign 2 on the doors, red and yellow chevrons on the tailgate, a blue light bar on the cab roof, and in the bed a portable fire pump with hose, an equipment cabinet and kit bags. The photographed vehicle carries HT02 JVY; the queue's row names T517 GTH, presumably a sister vehicle in the same fleet.

The registry's model is a Defender 110 truck cab in the yellow and red livery with the light bar, pump, cabinet and kit bags — the bags drop as cargo in the game, which also gives it water-pool pickups and the blue-light boost.
