A modular fire extinguishing vehicle, and a method for operating a modular fire extinguishing vehicle

A method for operating a modular fire extinguishing vehicle comprising at least one drive module;

• and a fire extinguishing module releasably connected to the at least one drive module;
• wherein the fire extinguishing module comprises a plurality of containers comprising different types of fire distinguishing agents and a fluid line connected to the plurality of containers, wherein the fluid line comprises a connecting interface for connection to a port of another vehicle, and wherein the method comprises:
• obtaining information about an ongoing or imminent fire in another vehicle and information indicative of a position of the other vehicle;
• autonomously operating the modular fire extinguishing vehicle to drive to a position in proximity to the other vehicle based on the position information of the other vehicle, to enable connection of the connecting interface of the fluid line to a port of the other vehicle;
• and
• controlling transfer of a selected one the different types of fire extinguishing agents from its corresponding container into the fluid line, wherein the selected type of fire extinguishing agent has been selected based on the information about the ongoing or imminent fire in the modular vehicle.

A computer program product comprising a computer program code stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium, said computer program product used for operating a modular fire extinguishing vehicle comprising at least one drive module;

• and a fire extinguishing module releasably connected to the at least one drive module;
• wherein the fire extinguishing module comprises a plurality of containers comprising different types of fire distinguishing agents and a fluid line connected to the plurality of containers, wherein the fluid line comprises a connecting interface for connection to a port of another vehicle, said computer program code comprising computer instructions to cause one or more control devices to perform the following operations:
• obtaining information about an ongoing or imminent fire in another vehicle and information indicative of a position of the other vehicle;
• autonomously operating the modular fire extinguishing vehicle to drive to a position in proximity to the other vehicle based on the position information of the other vehicle, to enable connection of the connecting interface of the fluid line to a port of the other vehicle;
• and
• controlling transfer of a selected one the different types of fire extinguishing agents from its corresponding container into the fluid line, wherein the selected type of fire extinguishing agent has been selected based on the information about the ongoing or imminent fire in the modular vehicle.
