The U.S. spends more than

$1.5 billion a year

to fight forest fires.

2021 saw the world’s

HIGHEST ANNUAL EMISSIONS

from forest fires.

Today’s wildfire seasons last

78 DAYS LONGER

than they did in the 1970s.

Wildfires are burning hotter, faster, longer, and over more acreage than ever before. Firefighting seasons today extend 10 or more months a year. Since 2000, an average of 70,600 wildfires burned an average of 7 million acres, double the acreage burned between 1990 and 1999. In response, government agencies are spending more to fight fires and putting out bids for larger aircraft with increased suppression capability.

Tank vs. Bucket

As the demand for higher capacity firefighting aircraft grows, helicopter fire suppression tanks are providing operators more flexibility and capabilities than buckets. Increased tank technology paired with prohibitive regulations against buckets make tanks the obvious choice for fighting the fires of today and tomorrow.
