Air Tractor AT-602

The Air Tractor AT-602 is a larger, more powerful version of the company's agricultural aircraft line, built for crop-dusting and aerial application over bigger farm operations. Its bigger hopper tank lets it cover more acreage per flight than the smaller AT-502, reducing the number of trips needed to treat a field. Like its Air Tractor siblings, its simple, rugged airframe is built to handle the stress of repeated low-level turns near the ground. Some AT-602s are also fitted out for aerial firefighting duty.
