what would it take to kill that fire?

1 minipumper flowing 100 gpm - but they would need to get within 25
feet of the fire probably which would require huge shields of some
sort - hey Red Adair - where are ya?

1 helo dropping 500 gallons in a precision shot - not sure if possible
due to hot updrafts

a big laser to cut down all of those trees in 10 seconds

a main battle tank to drop the trees and blow out the fire

5 helos to water down all trees within 1/4 mile - might need 10 big
helos in 1 minute - might be too dangerous to fly them so close to
each other without some sort of electronic precision inter-aircraft
flight control system

if that dozer could get right up to those trees and knock them down -
that could kill the fire

how about one of them huge fans to blow air and water and dirt all of
those trees

an industrial pumper could probably hit the base of that fire OK - but
would suck a 3000 gallon water tender dry in 1 minute
