FireWasp is a medium-sized compound helicopter designed for aerial forest firefighting. As part of the DLR Design Challenge 2022, the aircraft is designed, a mission and performance calculation are performed, and the necessary ground infrastructure is described. For all technologies an entry into service by 2030 is guaranteed. FireWasp combines the positive characteristics of fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters to become the aerial firefighting vehicle of the future. To enhance the safety of firefighters, the compound helicopter features technologies that enable remote control as well as the ability to operate autonomously. The fleet of compound helicopters is controlled from a mobile ground station and can be deployed anywhere. During the entire development process, the focus lies on maximising firefighting capabilities. Lastly, the payload system of FireWasp is a modular design, so that modules for other purposes than firefighting can be integrated.
