Fireboats in Singapore

[5] The two vessels are high speed fireboats that can project 5,000 litres (1,100 imp gal) per minute.

[8][9] One of those vessels was able to throw 240,000 gallons per minute, which Singapore authorities asserted made it the world's most powerful fireboat.

The Red Sailfish, commissioned on August 20, 2019, which will become operational in 2020, can project 240,000 litres (53,000 imp gal) per minute.

She is also equipped with a unique navigational aid - an autopilot designed to keep the vessel on station, when the thrust from her water cannons is pushing her off position.

[10] The hull of the Red Manta, also commissioned on August 20, 2019, which will also become operational in 2020, is a catamaran, and she is designed to be able to hold 300 rescuees.

She also has a large boardroom, which can serve as a headquarters, when multiple emergency vessels and vehicles need to be coordinated.
