fire fighting drone : [Global Network Military/Aviation Report] “Under the towering snow-capped mountains, the sun is shining on the earth, and the drone took off at an altitude of 4,300 meters.

And flew to 50 meters in the air with mist, hovering, rapidly ascending, and descending. And so on, successfully completed multiple tests such as load-bearing flight and maneuver flight, which verified the high altitude flight performance of the UAV fire extinguishing system.

A few days ago, members of the UAV fire extinguishing system team members of the Second Simulation Company of the Second Academy of Aerospace Science and Industry of China and the National Fire Equipment Quality Supervision and Inspection Center of the Ministry of Emergency Management conducted a plateau test of the UAV fire extinguishing system at an altitude of 4,300 meters.

and successfully completed the product finalization work. Promoted the industrialization process of UAV fire extinguishing system.

The purpose of this plateau test is to test the UAV’s large aerodynamic capabilities at high altitudes, including endurance time and speed in various states. The data for reference and comparison in the test are all derived from the test data in the plain area.

The test was completed at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters, and the natural environment and its harsh natural environment are facing great challenges for both drones and operators. 

On the plateau where oxygen is thin, operators need to continuously inhale oxygen during debugging and handling to ensure the smooth progress of the test.

The installation of fire fighting drone on the plains only takes 10 minutes, while it takes a full 30 minutes to install the drone at an altitude of 4,300 meters, which greatly tests the physical strength of the operators. 

At the same time, the multi-rotor UAV used in the plateau test is equipped with plateau propellers and high-performance batteries. Compared with the carbon fiber pulp and ordinary batteries used in the plain test, the efficiency of the propeller and the battery capacity are improved. 

The fuselage of the UAV is designed with full carbon fiber and high strength. The arms can be rotated and folded, and the UAV can be quickly unfolded. Under the premise of ensuring the quality of flight and use, the portability is significantly improved.

In the plain appraisal section, more than 60 tests have been successfully passed. Among them, the overall system of appraisal projects such as wind tunnels performs well. It is at the forefront of UAV-like products. 

With the successful conclusion of the plateau test, the company has completed all the tests of the inspection center and has successfully obtained a complete appraisal report issued by the center.

The appraisal report is an affirmation of the perfect and diversified performance of the UAV fire extinguishing system, and it is also a testament to the project team for many years. Recognition of hard work.

fire drone China has the largest number of super high-rise buildings in the world, with more than 7,800 super high-rise buildings. If a fire occurs at a position above 100 meters in a super high-rise building, the consequences will be disastrous. Although governments at all levels in China attach great importance to the fire fighting of super high-rise buildings

the existing fire fighting technology lags behind the development of super high-rise buildings and their fire safety requirements. Some problems in fire fighting of super high-rise buildings have not been overcome, and it is urgent to overcome super high-rise buildings.

External high-altitude close attack fire extinguishing technology. In this context, the company’s drone fire extinguishing system project came into being.

UAV fire extinguishing system

UAV fire extinguishing system has the ability of group cooperative fire fighting. The project team will focus on the systematic construction of the fire extinguishing system in the future.

Combining the development of ground fire fighting equipment vehicles and ground launch control equipment, UAVs will explore carrying fire extinguishing bombs and rescue

We have made breakthroughs in related key technologies and completed tests to achieve the main development goals of fire fighting, investigation, search, and rescue, and strive to

become the leader of the same product in the field of fire and rescue, and reach the international first-class level in the field of fire and rescue.
