Also, since fire season is around the corner, making available California Guard transport craft and ensuring water cargo capability could help prevent more pollution and limit property losses and associated costs. Future Guard cargo capable aircraft could employ modular systems that incorporate fire suppressing capability as a multi-role function. In-flight resupply of water or other fire suppressant material could be a possible consideration that could be factored into the design of new craft.
