The precision aerial firefighting and deluge system for helicopters and unmanned aerial systems is a device to attack fires inaccessible to firefighters due to altitude or other obstructions by streaming water or other fire retardant into or onto a specific location on the ground, on the water, or at altitude. The system employs a medium or heavy lift helicopter or unmanned aerial systems one or more tanks or bladders for water and/or fire retardant chemicals, a compressed air foam system, a pump, rigid plumbing lines for outflow of water/fire retardant; a rigid, telescopic boom that extends beyond rotor tip path plane, flexible lines/hoses inside boom; a crew switched electronic boom controller, a boom management system, a flange adapter, an electric, variable direction, crew-controlled fire monitor, a drop-hose, and a dart with inertial feathers.
