If this is serious, then its real value is the ability to arrive quickly, and operate right up next to a burning building. Get the doors under control, and the people out. The short ladder and low-oxygen ability seem to confirm this. The rubber tires, on the other hand, don't.

I also wonder if a fuel-cell engine has the power needed to move this thing. Couple hundred gallons of water ain't light, and pumping water through a hose likely takes some HP. Though its up-close ability means it doesn't have to pump very far.
