The Striker Airborne Fire Engine™ Foam vs. Traditional Aerial Firefighting Foam

Striker™ High Expansion Foam (Aerially Delivered)Traditional Low Expansion Foam (Aerially Delivered)
Compress Air Foam System (CAFS) QualityNone
Homogenous - StableNon-homogenous - Non-stable
95% of foam solution transformed into foam though controlled foam formationLess than 25% of foam solution transformed into foam through simple agitation
Most of the Foam stays visible and viable on the ground for 30-120 minutesRemining Foam stays visible and viable on the ground  for 1-10 minutes
High expansion foam outputLow expansion foam output
Structural protection- High viscosity Little to no structural protection – Low viscosity
Direct and Indirect medium duration fire AttackDirect attack and very short duration Indirect Attack
Used in Mop-up applicationPerforms no better than any surfactant
High volume of high expansion foamLow volume of low expansion foam
Indirect attack foam line production- Striker I H >4,000 ft per loadShort duration and marginally effective production of foam line
Can Achieve a very high Coverage Level (CL), 1 up to 83 (gal/100 sq. ft.) of foamStandard coverage level
