The Oshkosh Striker is a custom airport rescue firefighting (ARFF) truck built by Oshkosh Corporation. It is available in 1500 gallon (4x4), 3000 gallon (6x6) and 4500 gallon (8x8) models (US gallons). The Striker was introduced in 2001, with a redesigned 4x4, 6x6, and 8x8 introduced in 2009[1] and re-designed 8x8 in 2019[2]. The redesigned models are commonly referred to as Global Strikers as they were designed to exceed NFPA, ICAO, and EU standards.
