Description 

***Please see attachment*** The Government is evaluating utilization of heavy-lift UAS to conduct cargo delivery during wildland fire and all risk responses.

The loads will be secured in cargo nets and attached either by longline or directly to aircraft with a remote hook enabling the pilot to release the loads. Aircraft will be tasked to operate in hot, dry, and high altitudes during the fire season. The government is also interested in any information related to heavy-lift UAS capable of delivering water/retardant for the purposes of fire suppression.
