3.
Both 1 and 2 above
4.
Flight deck control
12-21. Vari-nozzles are used on all AFFF and

All nozzle gallon-
per-minute flow rates are based on what psi
pressure at the nozzle inlet?
1.
100 psi pressure
2.
200 psi pressure
3.
300 psi pressure
4.
400 psi pressure
12-22. What is (a) the length of Navy fire hoses and
(b) the maximum operating pressure?
1.

2.
Because of a positive airflow valve that
cools the wearer
3.
Due to its high percentage of reflectivity to
radiant heat
4.
Because of its lightweight fabric con-
struction and ease of mobility
