A system for fighting fires from a helicopter. The system has a wetting agent tank to hold a wetting agent, a suppressant mix tank to hold a fire suppressant mix including water and the wetting agent, and pumps. The system has a fire hose containment system including a retractable hose to deliver the fire suppressant mix from the suppressant mix tank through a suppressant mix hose to the hose containment system and out through the retractable hose. The hose containment system has a hose drum around which the retractable hose is stored, and a motor to extend and retract the retractable hose. Coupled to the distal end of the retractable hose is a nozzle array unit configured to direct the fire suppressant mix to a fire through nozzles included in a nozzle array housing of the nozzle array unit.
