[ INTERIOR ATTACK · MULTI-ROLE ]
Cinder
The multi-tool. Through the doorway, into the fire.
Cinder is the operation's multi-tool: an airframe formatted to enter structures through doorways and suppress fire from within and, in wildfire operations, to hunt down spot fires alongside Vulcan while the lead aircraft works the main fire.
Most fires are lost in the places crews can't safely reach: inside structures, ahead of the line, in the spots where a stray ember starts the next front. Cinder is built for exactly those places.
In structure response, Cinder enters through a doorway and attacks small fires from within, or holds a larger fire in check from inside while crews work the exterior.
In wildfire operations it flies as Vulcan's wing: while Vulcan commits its capacity to the head fire, Cinder sweeps the flanks, killing spot fires before they become fronts.
Capabilities
01
Doorway-format entry
An airframe sized and shaped to pass through standard doorways and operate in interior spaces.
02
Interior suppression
Takes out small fires from within a structure, or controls larger ones until the line moves up.
03
Spot-fire hunting
Works the flanks alongside Vulcan in wildfire operations, eliminating spot ignitions before they spread.
04
Multi-role by design
One airframe across structure fire, wildfire support, and hard-access response: the fleet's flexible middle.

[ IN THE SYSTEM ]
AD.OS tasks Cinder where the fire is hardest to reach: interior attacks in structure response, flank and spot-fire work in wildfire operations, always coordinated peer-to-peer with Ember's live map and Vulcan's suppression line.
