Limestone Township Fire Protection District – LMTV
The Limestone Township Fire Protection District is excited to announce that we recently acquired a military-grade Light Medium Tactical Vehicle (LMTV) through the Illinois Department of Natural Resources’ Federal Excess Property Program. With the generous support of local residents, businesses, and volunteers, we’ve successfully modified the vehicle for use in a variety of emergency response scenarios, including brush and wildland firefighting, flood rescue and evacuation, severe weather response, and search and rescue operations.
This versatile vehicle is equipped with several key features designed to enhance our emergency response capabilities:
- All-wheel drive with a central tire inflation system for improved mobility on rough terrain
- A 300-gallon water tank paired with a high-pressure 3,000 psi, 10 GPM pump for effective fire suppression
- 11,000-pound front and rear winches for heavy-duty recovery and rescue tasks
- Seating for three personnel to support crew operations during missions
- High-intensity LED lighting for visibility during nighttime operations
- A durable canopy for protection during flood or severe weather conditions
We are proud to have this new asset fully operational and available for mutual aid requests and special calls throughout the region. It represents not only a significant upgrade in our equipment but also the strong community spirit that continues to support our mission.
