The ZiL-131 was the main all-road Soviet Army truck of the 1970s and 1980s. Its serial production began in 1967 and featured high reliability and all-road ability. The basic model was used mainly as personnel transport or as a 5-ton capacity cargo truck. These trucks were supplied to Warsaw Pact countries and also to many Asian and African countries.
There were many ZiL-131 modifications for the Soviet Army and civilian use. One of them was a fire truck. The AC-40-137A modification was carried out by the Pryluky fire-fighting equipment plant from 1984 onwards. It was distinguished by a tank volume increased by 100 litres and control of the fire monitor from the cabin. Trucks of this type are still commonly used in fire departments of the countries of the former USSR.
