Aircraft firefighting reaches new level
Engineers demonstrate the penetrator nozzle on the new 65 foot High Reach Extendable Turret installed on the FAA Striker fire fighting vehicle to simulate fighting a fire on the new large aircraft mockup at Tyndall Air Force Base. Air Force Research Laboratory, working with the FAA, developed the mockup to research firefighting and rescue techniques in today's larger, multi-deck aircraft. (U.S. Air Force)

Blast effects on concrete studied
Blast pressure hitting these pre-cast concrete wall panels creates water vapor clouds that evaporate a couple milliseconds later. Air Force Research Laboratory's Materials and Manufacturing Directorate is engaged in a cooperative research effort at Tyndall Air Force Base to determine blast resistance of insulated concrete products.
