De Havilland Canada is proud to announce the Province of Manitoba has confirmed its intent to purchase three DHC-515 Canadair aircraft — the next-generation aerial firefighting solution.

Why the DHC-515 Matters:

✔️ Built on the proven legacy of the CL-215 and CL-415

✔️ Upgraded with modern avionics, better performance & fuel efficiency

✔️ Designed & manufactured entirely in Canada

✔️ Supports domestic industry, jobs & wildfire preparedness

Designed, built, and assembled in Canada — the DHC-515 is ready to lead the global fight against wildfires.
