The aircraft shown in the top pictures is a modified Boeing 747-400F carrying a YAL-1 laser system. The YAL-1 system targeted and destroyed missiles, but was defunded and eventually scrapped. It is no longer in use and was never capable of starting wildfires. Sources: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_YAL-1 https://simpleflying.com/boeing-747-yal-1-guide/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1690760555156406272

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
