Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department SEB unveils new Lenco X3 FireCat. A Lenco Armored Vehicles BearCat® X3 FireCat is being credited with helping to put out a fire in Agua Dulce, California earlier this month when it was too dangerous for firefighters to approach the scene using traditional means.
Unmatched performance, protection and reliability has made the BearCat G2 the preferred tactical armored vehicle of the LAPD, LASD, SEB, NYPD ESU., and Boston PD, as well as more than 1,000 Federal, State, and Local Law Enforcement agencies across the US.
The BearCat is a modified Ford F-5550 truck that weighs about 17,000 pounds, transports 10 to 12 people, and features a roof hatch with gun-mounting capabilities, police said. The Police Department paid for the vehicle by selling items seized from drug dealers, authorities said.
