Fire fighting innovation for helicopter operators looking for a tough, simple, reliable and affordable water delivery system. Coupled with some Kiwi ingenuity, TUU offers ‘two in one’ capability. Partnered with IMS NZ utilising their unique fire fighting buckets, TUU is a combination of some very clever can do.
TUU can be configured between (2) modes, seamlessly and quickly. There are no special tools required and can be undertaken in the field by pilots and or crew.
Tanking mode not only provides the operator with the ability to operate urban and meet various other contractual requirements, it also allows pilots and companies to firefight when they might not possess the skills or experience too long line (external load) competently. TUU is a game changer for maximising water dropping potential (500 litres per second) and utilising all competent aerial work pilots, not just the proficient line ones.
