Abstract: A mobile fire fighting foam delivery system. The system can include a trailer towable behind a vehicle. The trailer includes a frame with top, bottom and side surfaces, and is formed with a stabilizing ballast assembly. The trailer is mounted with an inlet that is connected with a nozzle assembly. The nozzle assembly includes a discharge nozzle device, and is structured and configured with a limited range of motion. Also included is a pump and hose system that can provide high volume flow of water and foam to the trailer in a variety of configurations. Also included is a manifold having a main body having an outlet, a plurality of inlets coupled to the main body, and at least one pressure relief valve coupled to the main body.
