Description

The 270- or 500-liter flexible helicopter-borne tank for firefighting is designed to transport water, foam, or drinking water by helicopter. It allows for the delivery of liquid supplies to remote, forested, or hard-to-reach areas when ground-based supply is limited or too slow.

Its flexible design facilitates transport, storage, and deployment in the field. This type of tank is particularly well-suited for wildland firefighting operations, interventions in natural environments, and temporary water supply needs.

Two capacities to suit operational needs

The 270-liter version offers a more compact design, suitable for missions requiring a lighter load or a smaller volume of water. The 500-liter version allows for a larger water supply for operations requiring a greater volume of water.

Both models are designed for helicopter-borne use and can be deployed to support firefighting teams, forestry services, or specialized operators working in hard-to-reach areas.
