Abstract

See full text

Apparatus and method for firefighting includes a containerless core of a fire retardant material, compressed to form a prolate spheroid shape. A shaft with fins and a carrying hook can extend from the core tail. The core can have a core charge of an explosive material within the core channel. An altimeter sensor coupled to the core charge and a triggering mechanism is coupled between the altimeter sensor and the core charge, and causes the triggering mechanism to detonate the core charge when the apparatus reaches an altitude. A delivery apparatus is included with a frame having carry harness, and at least one holding hook on the frame coupled to the carrying hook. The carry harness supports delivery apparatus in transport. Powders of calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate, ammonium sulfate, diammonium sulfate, diammonium phosphate, ammonium polyphosphate, or monoammonium phosphate can be intermixed as fire retardant, along with indigenous plant seed.
