This is probably the most unique tank design in the history of fire aviation. 3000 U.S. gallon fire retardant tank that wraps around the fuselage. With the ability to release the entire amount over a forest fire in seconds, cooool.

Nice shot Tim!
John I wonder how the main gear works with that 'Belly' in place?
Roy Hunte
Must be modified a bit.
