C-130 modular airborne firefighting systems (MAFFS) activation and efforts during the January 2025 California wildfires. In response to the wildfires, a major disaster declaration was made and support from USNORTHCOM, the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Red Cross is being provided to Southern California. We are thankful for all deployed in support of this and other natural disasters around the nation. #californiafires #C130 #USNORTHCOM #warriorsandrodeo PORT HUENEME, CALIFORNIA, UNIT
