Zancudo Air Force Base Fire Department is a specialized federal fire agency tasked with providing emergency services to Fort Zancudo, its airfield operations, and surrounding federal installations. With responsibilities ranging from structural and aircraft fire suppression to technical rescue and hazardous materials response, Zancudo AFB Fire plays a critical role in protecting military personnel, infrastructure, and adjacent communities in western Blaine County.
Zancudo AFB Fire is staffed by DoD-trained firefighters experienced in handling high-risk incidents involving aircraft, fuel depots, munitions, and large-scale structural fires. Personnel are in Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF), structural and wildland fire suppression, hazmat response, confined space rescue, Urban Search & Rescue (USAR), and vehicle extrication. The department maintains constant response readiness posture and regularly drills for mass casualty incidents, flightline emergencies, and base evacuations.
In addition to base operations, Zancudo AFB Fire provides mutual aid support to local fire agencies throughout Blaine and Los Santos Counties. Their close working relationships with Los Santos County Fire Department, Blaine County Fire, and other San Andreas State Fire agencies ensure rapid coordination in regional disasters, such as commercial aircraft crashes, wildfire prevention, or large-scale motor vehicle incidents on Route 1 or Route 68.
The department operates a fleet consistent with military fire service standards, including multiple ARFF units, structural engines, a USAR unit, an ALS ambulance, and command vehicles. This pack also includes an Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit, which are often called upon as explosives experts throughout their local areas. ALL apparatus are modeled after those used at Vandenberg Space Force Base (where Fort Zancudo draws inspiration from) as well as other Air Force fire departments.
