Bridger Aerospace Group, Inc. is an aviation services company specializing in aerial firefighting and airborne data collection. The company operates a fleet of manned aircraft and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to support wildfire mitigation, geospatial mapping, pipeline inspection, powerline surveillance, and vegetation management. Bridger leverages proprietary technology to deliver real-time intelligence and precision solutions for both emergency response and infrastructure monitoring.
In its aerial firefighting division, Bridger provides retardant and water drop services to federal, state and local fire agencies. The company’s aircraft are equipped with advanced delivery systems that enable accurate retardant placement in remote or rugged terrain. Bridger’s UAS operations complement its manned fleet by offering rapid deployment of thermal imaging and high-resolution sensors for fire detection, mapping burn perimeters and assessing post-fire damage.
Beyond wildfire support, Bridger Aerospace offers a suite of commercial and industrial aerial data services. These include LiDAR and photogrammetric surveys for construction, mining and environmental applications, as well as routine inspections of pipelines, powerlines and solar installations. The integration of drones with manned platforms allows Bridger to tailor solutions for sectors that demand frequent, high-precision monitoring and risk assessment.
Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Belgrade, Montana, Bridger Aerospace serves clients across the United States with additional deployments internationally. The company went public via a SPAC merger in early 2022 and trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol BAER (warrants: BAERW). Bridger’s leadership team is composed of aviation and technology professionals, led by founder and chief executive officer Tim Sheehy, who bring extensive experience in emergency response, unmanned systems and fleet operations.
