About the Eurocopter EC225 Super Puma

Water-bombing helicopter

It uses a suspended bucket or an installed tank to take water from a nearby source and place short, precise drops, including in steep or confined terrain. Depending on its configuration, it may also move crews, equipment, or rescue teams.

What this type can do

The H225 or EC225 is a long-range heavy twin-engine helicopter. In a firefighting fit it can carry a large bucket for powerful, precise drops; its cabin and range also support firefighter transport, evacuation, and rescue.

This describes the type’s usual firefighting capability; it does not prove what this aircraft is carrying or doing now.

Eurocopter EC225 Super Puma

The Airbus Helicopters H225 is a long-range passenger transport helicopter developed by Eurocopter as the next generation of the civilian Super Puma family. It is a twin-engined aircraft and can carry up to 24 passengers along with two crew and a cabin attendant, dependent on customer configuration. The helicopter is marketed for offshore support and VIP passenger transport duties, as well as public service missions.
