A vehicular firefighting system includes a vehicle, a boom pivotally
coupled to the vehicle about a horizontal axis and a nozzle pivotally
coupled to the boom. In one embodiment, the system includes a linkage
having a first end coupled to the nozzle and a second end coupled to the
vehicle such that the linkage maintains an orientation of the nozzle as
the boom pivots about the horizontal axis. In another embodiment, the
boom forms at least one fluid conduit in fluid communication with the
nozzle so as to deliver firefighting agent to the nozzle.
