PCADS™ - Aerial Fire Fighting |
|
Precision Container Aerial Delivery System - PCADS™ allows airdropping on wildfires. Airdropping allows immediate and accurate response by unlimited aerial firefighting resources to extinguish wild land fires 24/7. PCADS™ has been designed to be used by Air National Guard (ANG) and Air Force Reserve units (AFR) in support of existing aerial firefighting mission requirements for wildfires. PCADS™ is designed to disassemble upon air stream impact creating a “rain” effect of the media, allowing for safe ground and air operations while extinguishing wild fires
FAI is the prime PCADS™ contractor for US Army Test Program with Boeing as a partner company. FAI and Boeing – Integrated Defense Systems and Phantom Works have been working together over the last 5 years developing and testing PCADS™.
