About the Canadair CL-415
Amphibious water bomber
It refills while skimming a suitable lake, river, or sea surface, then makes short water-drop rotations when a safe water source is close to the fire. It attacks flames directly with water or foam rather than laying long retardant lines.
What this type can do
The turboprop CL-415 family scoops about 6,000 litres in roughly 12 seconds and can divide the load between several doors. It is built for high-tempo direct attack when a safe lake, river, bay, or coastal scoop run is nearby.
This describes the type’s usual firefighting capability; it does not prove what this aircraft is carrying or doing now.
The Canadair CL-415 and the De Havilland Canadair DHC-515 are a series of amphibious aircraft built originally by Canadair and subsequently by Bombardier and De Havilland Canada. The CL-415 is based on the Canadair CL-215 and is designed specifically for aerial firefighting, although it can perform various other roles, such as search and rescue and utility transport.
