The Bombardier, formerly '''[[Canadair]] CL-415''' is a Canadian [[amphibious aircraft]] purpose-built as a [[water bomber]]. It is the only aircraft designed and built specifically for fire fighting and is based on the company's [[CL-215]].
The 415 can scoop up to 6 140 litres (1350 Can gal or 1620 US gal) of water from a nearby water source, mix it with foam suppressant if desired and drop it on a fire without having to return to base to refill its tanks. The 415 was specifically developed to provide the capability to deliver massive quantities of suppressant to a fire in its initial stages, preventing it from getting out of control.
The 415 is powered by two [[Pratt & Whitney Canada PW100|Pratt & Whitney Canada PW123AF]] turboprops which replace the 215's piston engines. There is also an updated cockpit.
It first flew in December of [[1993 in aviation|1993]] and the first deliveries were in November of [[1994 in aviation|1994]].
The CL-415 design originates in a requirement for a firefighting amphibious flying boat to detect and suppress forest fires. The aircraft is built for reliability and longevity, with use of corrosion-resistant materials. Water loads are drawn in and can be mixed internally with fire reardants; speed is essential and missions can take as little as 10 minutes. The CL-415 has also been used in a paramilitary SAR role.
