Firefighting aircraft are special type of aircrafts which are used to tackle forest, industrial and other types of life threatening fire incidents which take place at different locations. These aircrafts are designed in such a way that store a huge amount of water or other fire retarding chemical and during their flight, they sprinkle or bomb water over fire affected location to control the fire from further spread. Companies have been developing a wider range of firefighting aircrafts which has the ability to operate efficiently in handling fire situations and at the same time are used for numerous rescue operations.
Firefighting aircrafts are designed in such a way that they can refill their storage tanks multiple times during a single flight through available water source such as sea, river, ponds or similar sources. Since firefighting aircrafts include helicopters, key manufacturers operating toward developing helicopters have transformed their existing helicopter lineup so that they can be used in firefighting applications. Meanwhile, governments across the globe are also transforming their existing aircraft fleet into firefighting aircrafts, which can be used in all such situations.
