The planes used to combat wildfires are commonly referred to as "air tankers" or "water bombers." These aircraft are equipped to drop water or fire retardant on burning areas to help control and extinguish fires. Some air tankers are modified cargo planes, while others are specifically designed for firefighting purposes. They play a crucial role in wildfire management by providing aerial support to ground crews.
