Zusammenfassung:A fire-fighting system for an aircraft, the fire-fighting system having a reservoir having an exterior envelope which delimits an interior volume of the reservoir and an interior wall which extends inside the exterior envelope and separates the interior volume into a first chamber and a second chamber which are separate from one another and are each filled with an extinguishing fluid. A network of pipes, and a valve system are provided which are arranged so as to allow, in succession, the extinguishing fluid to flow from the first chamber to the network of pipes, and then the extinguishing fluid to flow from the second chamber to the network of pipes. Such a fire-fighting system allows simpler installation in the aircraft, the fitting of a single network of pipes and hence a saving in terms of weight and volume.
