Tankkippfahrzeug

Deutsch > Englisch Technik Kraftfahrzeuge/PKW und LKW
"Alle Übungen werden with einem Tankkippfahrzeug (Stützräder, Knickschutz), beladen with Wasser durchgeführt."

Some kind of truck (obviously)... there's very few references in Google, and all seem to be to do with driving training courses, as this is. Any ideas?
Proposed translations (Englisch)
1 tipping tanker
4 water/road spraying lorry/vehicle,see below
3 -1 dump truck tanker

Thanks all. Turns out that this is actually about a tanker which is used to practice tipping over in, with wheels along the side so you can drive it in circles until it falls over. Sorry, no way to have guessed that from the word on its own, I just needed to read further. Thanks anyway.

water/road spraying lorry/vehicle,see below

vehicles equipped with tanks of water for road spraying,discharge clearing,etc,but here it refers to a course where driver training takes place,and these vehicles drive on ahead to simulate road conditions likely to be encountered later.

Oh, well, if the tanker is test-driven with Stützräder, it would be an "anti-rollover tanker vehicle". Was not clear at first
Peer comment(s):

disagree muitoprazer (X) : dump trucks in gb carry solid loads in the dump in front of driver.
