ABSTRACT
The forest fire henomenon has become one of the greatest ecological problems worldwide. The current tendency in the number of fires and surface burned is increasing. Technological innovations in this field, are centered mainly on techniques of prevention, prediction and management of resources as regards fire fighting. With the development of a mobile ballistic system, with remote load allocations of a certain extinguishing agent, aims to have a safe rapid response action, thereby increasing the efficacy of current fire fighting means, reducing the risks of personnel involved in their extinction and minimise the impacts of fire on ecosystems. Project contribution:
1) enables continuous fire fighting,
2) enables extinction regardless of weather conditions,
3) to attack fires directly
4) enables chemical firewall creation,
5) all actions can be performed using chemical agents.
Key words: forest fire extinction, ballistic system, forest fire, chemical firewall for forest fire.
