Abstract: The design of a large-scale amphibious aircraft for forest fire fighting and rescue mission on river or sea faces many challenges due to its special mission models. First, the domestic demands of forest fire fighting and rescue mission on river or sea are analyzed. Second, the special design different form the regular aircraft and the corresponding solutions are summarized, including the establishment of configuration management based on the domestic supplier, the integrated design of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics, the new design of the landing gear, the integration of mission systems and the evaluation of effectiveness, the integrated design of the cockpit, the arrangement of the equipment and the design of corrosion protection and control. Finally, four valuable problems with respect to aircraft airworthiness certification and application are proposed.

Key words: amphibious aircraft, mission model, integrated design of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics, mission system integration, integrated design of cockpit, equipment arrangement, corrosion protection and control
