Fujimi makes 2 sets of flight deck crews, one with a fire-engine and
one with the MD3 tractor.
Can't remember all the details of what is included. Check HLJ or similar they should
have some info on it.

FYI, availability tends to be a bit spotty as they seem to be produced
in batches and tend to sell out quickly.

Verlinden used to make some 1/72 carrier trackors and fire trucks...even some support equipment I think. I don't believe they produce them anymore, but there may still be some availible. Fujimi made the 2 kits mentioned above and Hasegawa makes several ground support equipment kits...though those have more Airforce equipment. The Fujimi F-14 kits also come with engines and engine dollies if you want hangar deck equipment.
