In Arma Reforger, when a vehicle reaches critical damage and catches fire, the fire can spread, causing harm to its crew until they are killed.

  • The driver and commander have the ability to manually trigger the fire suppression system to put out the fire. Additionally, they can toggle the automatic fire suppression system to enable or disable its triggering.

  • When a vehicle catches fire, the engine should automatically turn off if the automatic fire suppression system is enabled. At the same time, the fire suppression system should trigger to extinguish the fire.

  • The fire suppression system utilizes a certain chemical tank (e.g. Extinguishing Agent Canister) each time it is used, similar to ammunition. It can be resupplied or refilled to ensure it remains functional for subsequent fire suppression operations.


Description :
Armored tanks and vehicles are designed to provide protection to their crew and equipment in combat situations. However, these vehicles are still vulnerable to fire and explosion, which can be caused by a variety of factors such as fuel leaks, ammunition cook-offs, or enemy fire.

To mitigate the risk of fire and explosion, armored tanks and vehicles are often equipped with fire suppression systems. These systems are designed to detect and extinguish fires before they can cause significant damage to the vehicle or harm the crew.

Armored vehicle fire suppression systems typically use a combination of sensors, alarms, and extinguishers to detect and suppress fires. The sensors are located throughout the vehicle and detect heat and smoke. When a fire is detected, an alarm sounds and the appropriate extinguisher is activated.

The extinguishers used in armored vehicle fire suppression systems can vary depending on the type of fire. For example, dry-powder extinguishers are often used for fuel fires, while halon extinguishers are used for electrical fires. Some systems may also use foam or water mist extinguishers.

Overall, armored vehicle fire suppression systems are critical safety features that help protect the crew and the vehicle from the dangers of fire and explosion.
