IFA is correct, but not an S4000.
Locked for you for one more try.

The other possibility I had was a G-5.

And only seconds behind, I agree, an H6, about the last IFA conventional (bonneted) truck left.

Sorry, I missed one model, the H3 and I believe that is the run of conventional IFA trucks.

Might this be the prototype (1957?) IFA N7-DL30 ladder truck, which, I believe, was the only one ever produced?

Yes, it is the IFA N7 prototype, its construction was begun in 1956. DL30 resp. DL25 is the abbreviation for the ladders used (DL = Drehleiter = turning ladder; the number is the length in metres).
One more point for you.

A tip of the hat to 4popoid.
Not an easy puzzle in spite of the relative speed it was solved within once the IFA connection was made.
Probably a reflection on the East German economy of the time, most all of each different model looked pretty much the same to me.  One basic style, no real "styling" .
