Tired of scripted, mission based aerial fire fighting?

This addon application is not mission based, but instead it puts you into a completely dynamic world.

FireFighter X is a completely stand-alone addon for “Microsoft Flight Simulator X ®” and “Lockheed Martin Prepar3D ®”, running alongside your sim. It generates fires dynamically and enables you to put them out. Just start your flight at the airport of your choice, using any aircraft in your hangar. Adjust the retardant amount in FFX to suit your aircraft (mind the weight!), choose water or red chemicals as agent and you are good to go!

Fires will start small. But with a bit of wind, they will grow and spread, so don't take too long finishing your coffee. Fly over the fires, calculate your speed and the ideal drop approach, position and altitude - hit the trigger - watch the fires turn to ash and steam (provided you hit them). Or drop large amounts of the red retardant as barriers, box the fire in and just let it burn itself out. Running out of water? Scoop water from nearby water bodies. This is possible with every aircraft too - but only advisable with flying boats.

Fighting fires as a team
FireFighter X offers full multiplayer functionality, even across different simulator versions. No additional software is needed - but it is possible too to use FireFighter X alongside an existing multiplayer setup.

Fighting fires with AI support
Even if you are not into networked operations, you can nevertheless fight fires as a team - by using the built-in AI function. AI fire fighter aircraft can be used in different modes and setups to add even more variety.

FIRMS - VIIRS/MODIS support
FireFighter X now implements a function to download the FIRMS - VIIRS/MODIS current wildfire data provided by nasa.gov. This data will be processed directly in FireFighter X to provide an approximation of the real world wildfires for you to extinguish.

Features:

    Completely dynamic wildfires, reacting to wind and weather, growing and spreading.
    Option to download and use current FIRMS - VIIRS/MODIS wildfire data from nasa.gov
    Fully simulated water or retardant drop, including the effects of weight and balance on your aircraft.
    Complete Multiuser functionality.
    Supporting AI firefighters.
    Use any aircraft in your hangar - no configuration of the plane or its files is necessary!
    Updrafts and turbulence when flying over the fire.
    Aircraft damage when flying too low.
    Scoop water from water bodies.
    Every aspect of the fire and drop simulations can be adjusted to your preferences.
    Save and load fire situations and settings to disk.
    Fully stand alone - using SimConnect - no configuration of the sim is necessary, no config files are altered.
    Separate versions for all FSX based simulators included: FSX with Acceleration, FSX Steam Edition and Prepar3D v2.5, V3.x , V4.x, V5.x
