AERIAL FIREFIGHTING

While many firefighting fleets still consist chiefly of 1960s era aircrafts, RAIN Fire’s fleet is built with state-of-the-art S-70i Firehawks. With their smaller frame, they quickly maneuver on the frontlines and can continually drop water, foam, or gel. In a tight operation, they can also advantageously refill from local water sources with their integrated snorkel, ensuring the operation doesn’t get halted due to long refill flights.



INTERFACE FIREFIGHTING

RAIN Fire veteran firefighters are outfitted with high-tech gear to suppress fires in diverse settings, including extreme weather, remote locations and adverse topographical conditions. With the wildland-urban interface increasingly the battleground for wildfires, our firefighters are trained in advanced fire containment tactics and procedures to protect the lives and homes of people in your region.
