Have a look at this video shot in Russia. It shows a Beriev Be 200 being used to put out a house fire! Just click on the link.
I am amazed the building is still standing after these two drops! I wonder if the Incident Commander knew what he was getting! Well it can’t be said that aerial firefighting aircraft are single purpose and are limited to wildfires.
