Abstract: The fire extinguishing tarpaulin is configured for use extinguishing a chemical combustion reaction in an area of conflagration. The fire extinguishing tarpaulin comprises a fire tarpaulin, a rocket system, and an aircraft. The fire tarpaulin forms a gas impermeable barrier that limits the chemical combustion by limiting access to the oxygen required to sustain the chemical combustion reaction. The rocket system is a propulsion system that propels the fire tarpaulin to the chemical combustion reaction. The aircraft is a vehicle used: a) as a launching platform to deliver the fire tarpaulin to the chemical combustion reaction; and, b) a vehicle to subsequently recover the fire tarpaulin for future use.
