VAMTAC comes from Vehiculo de Alta Movilidad TÁCtica (High Mobility Tactical Vehicle).
These vehicles are the backbone of the Spanish Army's non-armored units, showcasing the versatility and reliability of the VAMTAC platform. Designed to adapt to various missions, the VAMTAC can be configured as communications vehicles, ambulances, advanced command posts, mobile workshops, and personnel carriers. Its most common military configuration supports platoons equipped with an array of weapons, including missile launchers and medium to heavy machine guns. But VAMTAC's adaptability doesn't stop there-its robust design also makes it the go-to choice for civilian agencies tackling high-mobility tasks in challenging terrains.
In Spain previous to 2018 blue lights were reserved only to police cars, ambulances and firetrucks used orange lights, but that created confusion(with tourist especially) because people confuse them with special transports or slow vehicles like tractors that also used orange lights, that happened especially with firetrucks in colours diferent than red, or ambulances with letering in another of the oficial languajes of Spain diferent to spanish(for example Euskera near the french border),
For that reason in 2018 they pased a law that made mandatory all blue lights to all emergency vehicles(like the rest of Europe), currently all new vehicles has to come with all blues and in some places they even adapted the old vehicles to all blue(but that is not mandatory for vehicles older than 2018)
In Spain every "Comunidad Autonoma"(Equivalent to State in the USA) has their own emergency management agency, those black and blue trucks are the logistic support trucks from Axega the agency responsible for emergency management in Galicia, the black and Blue are their colours others regions have their equipment in more standard red or yellow.
The truck with red and blue lights is a mobile comand center for emergency management, it was donated to Axega by a spanish bank, that also donated this type of trucks to other regions(Same truck diferent colours, in my region is yellow for example).
On top of every Comunidad Autonoma having their own emergency management agency the country has a especial unit of the army called UME (Unidad militar de emergencias/Emergencies Militar Unit) they have fire trucks and other vehicles and serve as support to the regions emergecy services and units, are often deployed by demand of the regions to help in big forest fires, floods, heavy snow storms, earthquakes, volcanoes... they also do international misions and they also have lots of Uro vehicles, but also Scania, Iveco, Renault...
Check out the channel of @sepaemergenciasasturias ( www.youtube.com/@sepaemergenciasasturias )is the emergency management agency of Asturias, is the region that Border Galicia the one on this video, they have lots of videos of real life interventions and drills, (They have a lot of helicopter rescues, in fact it was the first rescue group in Spain in 1988 to include a rescuer-doctor in their helicopter crew, that way the doctor can be always first on the scene, and can be able to make the rescue if only one person can descend from the helicopter)
No tenía ni idea de esto
Yo también acabo de aprender un montón con este comentario. Gracias... 😅
Los helicopteros de bomberos de Asturias hicieron una actuación en el Festival aereo de Gijón hace 2 semanas. Tienen un helicoptero de rescate medicalizado muy guapo.
en españa se cambiaron las luces a todas azules para que los bomberos o ambulancias no tengan mas preferencia que la policia... todo lo que has explicado esta muy bien explicado, pero tambien hay orgullos rotos de por medio...
@@cursivecaustico6817creo que quiere decir "para que no tengan menos preferencia "
In 2022 I was on Vacation a bit south of Barcelona on the coast and one night during a storm, a hill ridge, maybe 2 kilometres away from our Finca was hit by a Lightning, it was visible from our Window. A fire started spreading withing minutes and despite it being a like2 in the Morning and raining, the Spanish fire brigade showed up within 15 minutes and they got it in control and extinguisehd within the hour. That was some fabulous work there.
URO it’s a Spanish brand which make militar vehicles
Those in the minute 4:02 are Nissan patrol (made in Spain by Motor ibérica, in the early years was Ebro patrol) and a Nissan terrano 2 (also sold as Ford maverick).
here in Spain we have the U.M.E military emergency unit, which when fires or natural disasters are overwhelmed they act... in any country that asks for their help, they are highly valued for their excellent work inside and outside the country. Greetings...keep in mind that Spain is the second most mountainous country after Switzerland in Europe. And there are quite a few forest fires due to the high temperatures and lack of rain
el 90 por ciento o mas de los incendios en españa son provocados,por no decir el 100 por cien
And we are very proud of them!
I would say that Greece has more mountains than Spain.
@@nest1109and the you be wrong, we are the second most mountanous country on europe, spain is not only beach and sun 🙄
@@daninaval9569 I said:
I WOULD say. And Andorra is a country and has a more mountainous landscape than Spain. About Greece, have you been there?
Greetings and have a nice day.
URO, 100% spanish, 200% gallego 👍
you were wrong it is 100% Spanish and 300% Galician
Sip... menos los motores
As a german seeing that Uro truck the first time as well and with what speed and how smooth it took that turn while also looking preety sweet? I´m immediantly a fan of Uro, unholy moley they have truck racing capabilities stock, that´s freaking awsome.
En España decimos que Uro es el "Unimog" español 😊
La palabra URO, creo se refiere a un tipo de Toro antiguo , ya extinto, que está dibujado en las Cuevas Prehistóricas en España, una de ellas en Altamira, Cantabria.😊
(urovesa "dot" com) Exactly, it is the URO brand, a Spanish company that designs defense, tactical and industrial vehicles. It has good vehicles used in Defense.
1:57 That truck is a URO, manufactured by a Spanish manufacturer called Urovesa, based in Galicia like the creator of the video.
It only makes all-terrain vehicles.
The Spanish army has everything from cars to trucks of this brand.
Greetings
Vive en Galicia este bien hombre?
Yes, it's an URO vehicle, and VAMTAC is the model, Vehículo de Alta Movilidad TACtico (High Mobility Tactical Vehicle). The manufacturer makes personalized vehicles to Bomberos(Fire departments), UME(Military Emergency Unit), ejercito de tierra(Military Force), SAMUR(Madrid Emergency Medical Services), Policía Nacional (National Police), and also for other countries.
@@apg8387 No hombre, el que ha grabado el video.
El que lo comenta vive en EEUU
Fun fact. The exoskeleton the firetrucks have are used to spray water when they go into a fire in the mountain
AXEGA is the Emergenci Management Agency of Galicia. The truck is a 23000 Litres tanker. Logistic support.
By the amount of comments i was not the only spanish waiting for this.... Now it's Seat time...
I was having the same thought!
And Spania GTA!
@@ricardolinterna4041and old Pegasos :)
Finally Spain! And starting with Coruña, where I live! 💚
The original channel is the official channel of the Emergency Unit (122 = 911 from USA) from Coruña (a province in Galicia, Northwest Spain).
This is a fire simulation in the edges of the city, near the woods. We need small but powerful vehicles to run up the hills through the vegetation. The landscape here is similar to Ireland and the UK, a lot of green, a lot of rain.
Thanks for the compliments on URO and the landscape! 💚
Comunidad autónoma de Galicia...no provincia de España. Galicia tiene cuatro provincias; A Coruña, Lugo, Ourense y Pontevedra.
@@castelopequeno7132 eso es lo que puse: Coruña, una provincia en Galicia, al Noroeste de España
no es el canal del 112
Talking about red and blues, blues mean priority and flashing red lights means pull over.
Only used by law enforcement, when they get behind you with all blues, you need to make way, if they're behind you flashing all blues and some tiny red lights in the middle of the lightbar, you are to find a safe spot to pull over.
Some emergency vehicles in Madrid have red and ambers but it's outdated, being changed to blues again.
The majority of the vehicles seen in this video are pretty much very old, besides the local government ones, logistics vehicles, etc.
Civil defense (protección civil) is a volunteer emergency service (which I proudly serve) that is funded by the town/city they serve, so in many cases the vehicles are really old because the budget is very small.
Unless it's a civil defense service vehicle from a really big city.
10:17 dacia duster,is a renault but more cheaper, in other countries like Argentina they sell it like a Renault with Renault logo but here it's dacia
6:05 Vamtac is another Uro model, it is also used by the Spanish army.
VAMTac means in Spanish, High Mobility Tactical Vehicle. (Vehiculo de Alta Movilidad Táctico)
Saludos
We have many versions of the Vamtrac in the Portuguese army. Been using them in missions in Africa ever since we got them.
UK is buying some of those soon too
There is a lot of personalized VAMTAC, for Bomberos(Fire departments), UME(Military Emergency Unit), ejercito de tierra(Military Force), SAMUR(Madrid Emergency Medical Services), Policía Nacional (National Police), and also for other countries.
El Hummer se llama asi por que el acronimo en ingles HMMWV (lo he tenido que mirar jejejeje) y de ahí a Humvee. Como en el ejercito se le llamaba así la compañia adoptó una variacion del nombre.
10:10 that's a dacia duster sold as renault in some countries and has the word "simulacro" so basically it's a simulation/training
Yep, pretty much the cheapest SUV in europe
Pretty cheap yet pretty capable off-road suv on the EU market, beside it lacks of a true low range transfer case
The brand with the “bull” logo is of Spanish origin and is called “UROVESA”. It makes a really cool range of rugged military and civilan vehicles. Check out its “VAMTAC”, a Spanish version of the American Humvee, but much improved and more flexible. Cheers!
10:30 by the way, that actually said simulacro, which means drill, making the people clear that there is no emergency actually happening
Those Nissan Patrol are a legend in Spain. When Nissan took over the EBRO brand by acquiring Massey Ferguson's stake, it was the first model that the Japanese manufactured in spain. The Patrol was widely used by all state security forces, emergencies, etc. A real and widely modifiable TT 4x4, a beast.
I remember my father going sometimes to help work mates in his 20+ years old Nissan patrol because they had some kind of problem in the Mountain with their new cars.
In the USA you have a population that inherited the name of the one that appears in the video. Coruna.
Corunna is located in eastern Shiawassee County. It became the county seat in 1840 and eventually incorporated as a village in 1869. This town was originally settled in the early 1840s by a group of businessmen called the Shiawassee County Seat Company.
Andrew Mack, a member of the group, named this town after Corunna (Galicia) Spain, after traveling there to purchase sheep. (Mr. Mack is buried in Corunna, Canada, in which he was also instrumental in developing.)
He liked the name so much that he gave it to another city he founded in Canada!
Desde Coruña , Galicia. España saludos a la corunna canadiense y norteamericana
Todo muy bien pero se dice "A Coruña".
@@castelopequeno7132 ja ja 😂😂😂😂😅😅 si quieres ponerle la a ja 😂😂😂😂😅 a mí me vale , yo lo escribo como quiero yo
@@castelopequeno7132 En español "La Coruña"
2:19 Looks like Ford EcoSport to me
4:14 As somone already mentioned second one is Nissan Terrano (aka Nissan Mistral on some markets, as name Terrano was used for another Nissan SUV). Also due to "badge engineering" known in Europe as Ford Maverick. In production from 1993 to 2005
5:18 Suzuki Grand Vitara gen. 2, 2005-2014
9:19 Suzuki Jimny gen. 3, 1998-2018
10:19 Dacia Duster 1 gen. after the facelift, Cheapest SUV on european market (and surprisingly competent in light off road). Dacia is Romanian brand using older Renault technology
@iwrocker You should check the Spanish Military Emergency Unit, they are beasts! 👌
Love your videos and Greetings from Spain!
I agree, 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.
The Urovesa company also manufactures the civilian version of the VAMTAC
4:14 Nissan Patrol, and Nissan Terrano II, 4:52 Nissan Navarra ( the Frontier is for the american market, the Navarra comes with a 2.5L turbo diesel intercooler engine pulling 162 Horse Power ), 7:08 Its a DAF truck.
Its a URO

This is in the NW of Spain, in a region (Comunidad Autonoma) called Galicia. Very hilly with almost no flat places. It rains a lot and foreigners say it feels like you are in Ireland and not in Spain. With a lot of rain comes lots of trees and, unfortunately, lots of wildfires. Since there are houses all around the place, those fires can be pretty nasty.
Those big trucks are from the URO brand. Think about the square cab Unimog, but without portals. They even made a model that is narrower to be able to fit into some of the (ancient) tracks that you can find in the zone. And those drives are a bit crazy. I've seen them drive those things into places where only logging tractors go.
A nice way to check the place is using google street view. Just aim for the part of Spain that is over Portugal and you are good to go.
10:24 That's a Dacia Duster. Dacia is a Romanian brand which is owned by Renault. The brand is quite popular in Europe because they make decent vehicles for a very cheap price, because they leave out unnecessary tech.
Some of their cheapest models are priced at under $10,000 (new)
9:53 el exoesqueleto también sera el sistema de agua que lleva el camión para protegerse del fuego, otros en el video lo llevan mas fino en negro, protege al camión y ocupantes por si tienen que salir de una zona en llamas.
The Brand of the trucks is called uro, Spanish brand for military vehicles but also emergency vehicles
11:05 as someone from this city, i can confirm, it is windy all the time
I had no idea either so I looked up Axega, and it seems to be the Galicia Emergency Agency, responsible for civil protection and emergency planning for the region of Galicia. I guess an American equivalent would be Office of Emergency Management on a local or state level or FEMA nationally.
This is definitely in Galicia, otherwise the vehicles would have the Castillian "bomberos" written on them instead of the Galician "bombeiros".
Yes, Axega seems to be a semi-Private Entity in galicia
Seems like they tow their water for refilling. We czechs have plenty of ponds for this purpose built across the country, but if we really need extra water, the tatra 8x8 serves that purpose.
Forest fires are dealt with by 4x4 tatras, they are small, agile and get through everything. Germany uses them for forest fires as well.
The tanker is only used in very large fires when the truck or helicopter water deposits nearer to the fire start to run low.
5:37 is from the brand Uro which also provide the tactical vehicles for our spanish infantery.
Emergency vehicles with wlectrinic signs on top are quite common across europe. Some can show full text, some can show only limited graphics or arrows. Most commonly those can be seen on highway police vehicles for the purpose of securing accident sites. If not used for reasons of air resistance they may fold down automatically when switched of.
The Cars at 04:02 Are 1st A Nissan Patrol High Roof and the 2nd Is a Nissan Terrano II.
The little White SUV at 09:18 a Suzuki Jimmy 2nd Series.
The SUV at 10:16 is a Dacia Duster
URO, el que fabrica el VAMTAC, que es un serio rival del HUMMER
Im from Spain and I can say the forest fire truck are quite old
Landscape minute 2:00 is Asturias in the north of Spain, you are right, it is mainly valleys, hills and mountains, the regional emergencies firefighter use to be painted in yellow. At 4:38 you had a Nissan Patrol. As curiosity Uro is prehistoric bull, since our most famous animal is bull, it fits.
The video shows a forest fire drill involving different entities for training purposes.
Yellow trucks are from URO VAMTAC, they use to make military vehicles.
5:13 That's a Suzuki Grand Vitara long wheel base. I have one of those powered by 2.0 l turbo diesel Renault engine and I can assure you that it is a real all terrain vehicle and a beast pulling trailers with more than one ton of olives uphill.
In 4:02 you have a Nissan Patrol (first one) and a Nissan Terrano 2 (second vehicle), Ford also makes a Nissan Terrano 2 under the name of Ford Maverick. I have the 1995 Ford Maverick and is such an amazing offroader, incredibly capable offroad and durable, my favourite car without doubts!!!!
5:36 is a Uro truck, they are a galician company and they made special vehicles. They also made the URO VAMTAC, a military vehicle.
URO, fabricante español de vehículos especiales 4x4 para ejercito y salvamento. Vantac es uno de los modelos de URO.
From Barcelona I love your canal youtube! (😂😂I ‘m 60 old years🎉🎉
The Toyota Hilux vehicles seen in the video are the ones used by the forest firefighters of Galicia. Four forest firefighters and a brigade chief travel in them. In the truck, only one forest firefighter travels, who is in charge of the fire engine.
Take a look at the URo Vamtac. Nice video near to my house by the way.
The big red truck are from Militery unit called UME which in Spanish stands for servicio militar de emergencias which translated means militery emergency services which is only deployed in big fires or other big emergencies.
5:32 Spanish brand called uro
I like the long wheel base uro vamtac
One thing to mention is that amber lights in Spain are considered emergency lights the same way red and blues. Although they are gradually replacing them with red and blues. Just watch a random video of ambulances in Spain. You’ll see many amber only, or a mix of amber and red.
Just blue lights, red ones are only for police cars to pull over vehicles ( on this days)
@@maxter_paradiseYou are wrong. Anyway, I don't know what police service you talk about. There are plenty of them.
@@consuelonavarrohidalgo5334 i'm talking about Spain, we dont use the red color as an emergency light wey use it just to pull over vehicles. You can see that if you search for it
If they turn on the red light in adittion to the blue lights you must stop where you can
3:19 AXEGA is an acronym in Galician. (A Coruña is in Galicia and they have a regional official language there, besides the national official language, Castilian.)
It means "Galician Emergency Agency". Their main colour is blue because the Galician flag is blue over white.
You can also see a "La Caixa" logo on some of their vehicles, meaning that vehicle was donated by a charity run by a bank (a tax-deductible donation, of course).
Dacia. The white one that says "simulacro" (its just a emergency test) is a dacia Sandero
5:32 That truck is also an Uro but more modern than the first
The Vamtac turck ( the big yellow one) is nationally made, its a Spanish brand that specializes in Vehicles for the Spanish military and Emergency forces
The two cars at minute 4:25 are the front one a Nissan Patrol and the second one a Nissan Terrano II. The red Nissan from minute 5 is a Navara as it was named in Europe.
The SUV at minute 10:24 is a Dacia Duster, with Renault mechanics, they are not very good but they are cheap.
Trabajo como voluntario como restaurador en un aeromuseo y disponemos de 6 vehículos de bomberos, 2 de los primeros camiones de bomberos de España, 1 Ranger Rover de bomberos de los años 70-80, 1 camioneta de bomberos americana de los años 50-60 y 2" Camiones gigantes "modernos" de la marca vamtac y Mercedes, el techo de cada camión es más alto que la altura del 1° piso de un piso, es muy, muy alto y grande, mido 1,84 cm y cada rueda es casi de mi tamaño. 😅
If you watch the clip in time zone of video 4 minutes 12 seconds those car are from a special unit call civil protection so basically they do from fires to traffic accident and are mostly found in small towns. The police car you saw pull over to the side is a national police they patrol the cities and are one of the main police forces in Spain.
If you enjoy off road trucks, in Europe we have off road truck trial competions, you might appreciate
Thanks, Iwrocker for that video!
But, you only made a video off the fire emergency vehicles, not for the Spanish police vehicles, please do it
On some Spanish ambulances they have Amber lights and some fire trucks also have Amber lights. Speaking from a person who has spent a lot of time in Spain on holiday and still does.
Use < and > to move frame by frame through the video. Helps if you stop on a blurry frame.
Don't underestimate Iveco Daily 4×4, little than the Unimog, but they can do off-road
"axega" is the Galician bureau for forest emergencies like fires . they have a lot of diferents vehicles to fight emergencies , like you see in the video : watter tankker , van with watter pump and moviles headquarters too
4:13 Ford Maverick i think you guys got it in usa but only the 4 door. mate had a blue 2 door with the 2.7turbo diesel it went well for older car and sound was not bad either. always quite liked the Ford Maverick
The vamtac is from uro
UME, the army unit fulfilling its duty, the best emergency unit in the world, military spirit at the people service.
Those units with "AXEGA" name on them are vehicles that are very very very rare to see. They respond to big things or maybe for helping police at searching for somebody with its drones. Maybe for its importance some of their vehicles use red and blue lights.
Edit: that old 4x4 was a Nissan Patrol
So they are some sort of special unit of the fire brigades? Or a different company altogether?
@@rolandk9860 the first one, but they depend on the government of Galicia because they just work there. Galicia is something like a state in the US, but here these territories are called autonomous comunities. They dont have the same power as a state on the US but is something similar.
In this video you just watched vehicles from Galicia, but there are so many different units around Spain.
AXEGA is the Axencia Galega De Emerxencias, as you may know Spain has a diferent goverments as per the Comunidades Autonomas, and thats the Agency in charge of first responding to emergencies on the Galicia region, thus the name is in Galician language
A 10:24, il s'agit d'un Dacia Duster. La marque Dacia est une marque originaire de Roumanie. Elle fait parti du groupe Renault. En ce qui concerne les cages tubulaires a l'extérieur des cabines de camions Mercedes unimog, cela sert de cage de protection en cas de retournement. Les unimog sont des véhicules polyvalents. Chez les pompiers, en Europe, ce sont des véhicules spécialement conçus pour combattre les incendies dans les massifs forestiers.
In the airport of Barcelona, they use a magirus dragon x6, it's a 6x6 firetruck with 2 iveco engines with arround 1100hp
4:38 its called in Spain Nissan patrol, and the one before its a Nissan Terrano
The little suv with trailer is a Dacia Duster! 10:13
small white suv, Dacia Duster, from Romenia, owned by Renault
Fun fact about Spain our fire fighter are some of the best in the world
the white one at 10:18 is a Dacia Duster, a Romanian made car
Considering that there are environmental agents, firefighters, a cistern, perhaps a spill of a dangerous substance
Hola campeón son camiones de la UME que significa UNIDAD MILITAR DE EMERGENCIA
That funny little SUV was a Suzuki jimny, been around in various iterations since the 60's still made today
Vitara?
Red car is fire chief I think

I know you have reacted to a pov ambulance ride in Slovenia, but could you please make a nother reaction of Slovene rescue services🙏❤
Yes I'll move it to the top of my Video list for this week 😎
14:19 is a Dacia Duster 👍
Hey, if you want to check on the SEAT brand, i suggest you to start with the SEAT Cupra GT, it's a funny little demon
Coruña, my city, north west of Spain. totally different from the hot south, here we have a climate more similar to England, cool and rainy
Vantac es el.mejor.de.su clase es oro puro
You might also look into the french forrest firefighter trucks
The white SUV with a trailer at 10:30 is a Dacia Duster
React to classical Hispano-Suiza cars or Pegaso z102
2:58 The blue Axega vehicles are from the Galician emergency agency and are emergency vehicles from the Galicia region.
The Toyota early in the video is a short Land Cruiser Prado
your eyes are brighter blue than your shirt amazing.
Old Nissan Patrol ranchera. About 1990
Min. 10.26 that car is a Dacia, Romanian make, very popular throughout Europe, cheaper to buy that other makes, getting much better and safer nowadays, they are part of the Renault group and use Renault engines.
10:12 brand dacia , model: duster (i belibe)
The yellow fire truck is ummmm forest service fire station
axega is not a brand its an agency of the community of galicia that its about emergencies in that community
