The Hungarian Defence Forces recently participated with a H225M helicopter in containing wildfires raging in Bulgaria. A seven-strong contingent of the HDF 86th Helicopter Wing was fighting fires for three days in the area of Ploski and Ilindentsi. During their 26 flight hours, they landed on 20 occasions and scooped up water 146 times with the Bambi Buckets used for extinguishing, using up a total of 277,000 liters of water.
