Hydroseeding

Apart from being one of the most effective high-volume firefighting water bombers, the Helitanker also delivers soil stabilizing hydroseed or lime mix with the same maneuverability, accuracy, and coverage level options.

• Choose up to 8 different coverage levels depending on the viscosity of the mix, soil, and terrain type.
• Refill is accomplished in 1-2 minutes with a specially designed manifold which includes an agitator to keep the mix in suspension during flight.
• Using the Helitanker, large areas of remote, inaccessible landscape can be covered within days.
