Instead of investing in gimmicky tooling like these, states should just follow Native American battle-tested-for-centuries practices of wildfire control. Wildfires are a natural part of the ecosystem in most parts of the world.

Alternatively, if Americans feel too hoity-toity about learning from the (real) natives' practices, Canada and Australia both have been following the best practices of wildfire management for decades now.
