产品简介

THREE FORTY THREE 是纽约市消防局（FDNY）在确定需要对海上作业部门进行现代化改造后提出的要求。这艘长 140 英尺、重 500 吨的消防船取代了已有 50 年历史的 JOHN D MCKEAN 消防船，每分钟可抽水 50,000 加仑，比其前身多出 30,000 加仑。

THREE FORTY THREE 是为纪念 2001 年 9 月 11 日在世贸中心牺牲的 343 名消防员而命名的。船头的字样是用取自世贸中心废墟的钢材制作而成的。

The pilot house offers a 360 degree view as well as a command and control area where Chief Officers can monitor and direct the operations with the aid of remote cameras and a large array of state-of-the-art communication equipment.

The THREE FORTY THREE is named in honor of the 343 firefighters who lost their lives at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. The lettering on the bow of the vessel is crafted from steel taken from the actual ruins of the World Trade Center.
