Fire boss australia

Kennedy Air operates a fleet of Fire Boss Aircraft. No other air tanker attacks wildland/urban interface fires with the agility, tempo and cost effectiveness of the 802F Fire Boss.

Capable of delivering more than 50 000L per hour to the fire ground when operating near a water source.

The Fire Boss is the most economic, high performance and reliable amphibious aircraft in the world today. The aircraft can operate from either airports with traditional aircraft loading or scoop from suitable sized water bodies. 

Detailed specifications of the AT802F are available here:  https://airtractor.com/aircraft/at-802f-fire-boss/
