Haven't seen the article yet but ain't that comparing apples to
oranges? A more appropriate comparison would be the be200 to the
martin seamaster

Thanks, for answering, but it looks like there is a big chance for Croatia
to buy Be-200 for Fire fighting missions, so much about oranges and apples,
and politics which does not know difference between fruits...

The modern equivalent to the Martin Seamaster would be the Beriev A-40
Mermaid :- http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/aircraft_pages/a-40.htm

The Be-200 is a civil machine designed for firefighting - or as a
general utility amphibian.

As such is is in the same class as the CL-415 - only bigger and better

Bigger certainly, but the "better" bit depends on how the question is
asked. I say each is fairly well tailored to the conditions in which
their builders foresee them being used. I would be surprised if the
Be-200 would be as cheap to operate as the CL-415, especially in North
America; likewise, the CL-415 would probably be more expensive to
operate in Eastern Europe and Russia. It would also be interesting to
be able to compare mission availability.

You may find the answer at www.e-redstar.com. There is an interesting comparison between those two aircrafts.
