I don’t see a lot of info on payload in that article. Forest fires are big. You’d need an enormous fleet of drones to be effective.
Already behind the times on that: arstechnica.com/…/firefighting-drones-head-to-asp…

I can contribute that the goal with the drones is to help contain small fires before they spread - they aren’t there to stop the fires, just slow them down until humans can get there with the serious equipment.
