A wildfire suppression assembly includes an aircraft that has a water reservoir integrated into the aircraft to contain water. A spraying unit is attached to the aircraft to spray the water onto a wildfire over which the aircraft is flying for suppressing the wildfire. A primary reservoir is provided which can be filled with water. A fill hose is fluidly attachable between the primary reservoir and the water reservoir to fill the water reservoir with the water stored in the primary reservoir. A plurality of storage reservoirs has a plurality of fill openings to capture precipitation thereby facilitating each of the storage reservoirs to be filled with the precipitation. Each of the plurality of storage reservoirs is in fluid communication with the primary reservoir to supply the primary reservoir with the water.
