Chemical tanks located under the Air Tractor AT-802’s wing enable the transportation of water, foam or other extinguishing agents in firefighting operations. In this way, fire zones can be intervened quickly and effectively. The AT-802 has short takeoff and landing distances and is capable of flying at low speeds. This provides the advantage of being able to land closer and accessible to fire areas and maneuver in tight spaces.

 

Bombardier 415

The Bombardier 415 is an amphibious firefighting aircraft specially designed to transport firefighting materials such as water and foam. Thanks to the special water reservoir located under the wing, Bombardier 415 can collect water quickly and release it to fire areas. The aircraft’s water release capacity is around 6,137 liters (1,620 gallons). The amphibious nature of the Bombardier 415 gives it a great advantage in firefighting operations. The aircraft can move quickly and safely on the water so that it can collect water from water sources close to the fire areas and reach the fire areas quickly.

Thanks to its powerful engines, the Bombardier 415 can reach high speeds and has long ranges. This allows the aircraft to reach fire areas quickly and offers the ability to cover a large area. Thanks to the Bombardier 415’s state-of-the-art avionics systems, flight safety and operational efficiency have been increased. In addition, the cockpit of the aircraft has a modern design and offers pilots an easy-to-use environment. The Bombardier 415 has a solid construction and can operate reliably even in harsh weather conditions. The aircraft’s design is optimized for the intensive use and heavy loads required by firefighting operations.

Thanks to the flexible operation capability of the Bombardier 415, it can adapt to various missions such as search and rescue, emergency response and natural disaster relief as well as firefighting operations. This allows the aircraft to be versatile and able to respond quickly to a variety of operations.

The aircraft’s avionics systems offer pilots advanced navigation, communication and surveillance capabilities. The C295W has several configuration options to adapt to different tasks. By rearranging the interior, it can be adapted to a variety of missions such as passenger transport, VIP transport, military equipment transport and air ambulance.

 

Lockheed C-130 Hercules, Maffs

The Lockheed C-130 Hercules can be equipped with a system known as Maffs (Modular Flame Suppression System). Maffs is a system specially designed for firefighting operations. The C-130 Hercules is designed for quick and easy installation of the Maffs system. The aircraft adapts to the modular structure of the Maffs system to quickly respond to fire zones. The Maffs system allows rapid discharge of water or firefighting chemicals from the water tanks mounted under the wing of the C-130 Hercules. In this way, the aircraft helps to extinguish or control fires by directly intervening in fire areas.

 

Beriev Be-200

The Beriev Be-200 is a Russian multipurpose amphibious aircraft. The Be-200 is both an aircraft that can take off and land from the water surface and an aircraft that can operate from land airports. Thanks to this feature, it can be used effectively in tasks such as fire extinguishing on water, sea search and rescue, and water monitoring. The Be-200 is specially designed for firefighting operations. Be-200, which can be used as a firefighting aircraft, can quickly pick up fire extinguishing agents such as water or foam from the water surface and discharge them into fire areas.

Beriev Be-200 has a high carrying capacity due to its spacious interior. It is suitable for carrying various loads such as firefighting equipment, search and rescue equipment, medical equipment or passengers. The Be-200 is optimized for long range flights. This enables it to participate in long-running missions such as fires or search and rescue operations in remote areas.

 

Martin 170 JRM MARS (Martin Mars)

The Martin 170 JRM MARS (Martin Mars) is an amphibious aircraft made in Canada. The Martin Mars is an amphibious aircraft that can take off and land on water. Thanks to its wide body structure, it has the capacity to carry a large amount of water. This feature allows it to be used effectively in fire extinguishing operations. Martin Mars is designed for firefighting operations. It has large water tanks with a water capacity of 27,000 liters (7,200 gallons). In this way, it can quickly discharge water to fire areas and helps to control the fire.

Martin Mars is an aircraft designed for long-range flights. This ensures that it can be used effectively for fires or other emergency response operations in remote areas. Martin Mars has a large interior and has a high payload. Ideal for carrying firefighting equipment, search and rescue supplies or other loads. Martin Mars, II. It is an aircraft designed and used during World War II. Therefore, it has a historical importance and has a special place in aviation history.
