Tempe PD (AZ) Mobile Command Center

Tempe Police Department of Arizona chose LDV to create their new mobile command center. They chose to build this new custom vehicle on a Ford F650 regular cab chassis featuring a 6.7L Power Stroke 6-Speed automatic transmission with double overdrive. We have also installed our Intel-I-Touch™ vehicle automation system, which assists with auto start-up and shutdown procedures. This system also assists with deployment of the LDV-fabricated flat floor slide-out that has been added to maximize the interior workspace of the vehicle. To gain entry into the vehicle, there is a set of pull-out aluminum stairs encased in a narrow profile cassette that can be deployed once at the scene.

Inside, the front features a conference table with five spider base task chairs. Custom-fabricated flip-down bench seating has also been added to the front of the room for additional seating. Magnetic dry erase boards also flank a 50" UHD 4K Smart HDTV on the driver side wall. Laminate countertops have been used throughout the vehicle for durability. A Norcold 3.6 cu.ft. refrigerator has also been added to the galley area for convenience.

The on-board lavatory can be accessed from the outside of the vehicle using another set of pull-out aluminum stairs encased within a narrow profile cassette. A pressurized water system has also been installed. In the rear of the vehicle is another collaboration area with a removable conference table. There is also custom bench seating with removable cushions which provides additional storage in this area. Pre-wire and installation provisions have been added for communications radios to be installed by the customer.

Two motorized retractable lateral arm awnings provide shade to those outside the vehicle. An emergency light and siren package has been added, providing high visibility when traveling to and from a scene. For HVAC, a 3-speed reversible 12" power roof ventilator and two ducted lo-profile air conditioners with thermostats have been installed. To provide electric power to the vehicle, a 12-kW diesel generator has been installed inside a custom-fabricated all-aluminum compartment. A color back-up camera system has also been included to assist with parking duties when needed.
