I didn’t even think of the helicopters, but yes, that transport is relatively easy. My experience is tangentially related to the fixed wing jet tankers.
I think that firefighting activity stresses airframes more than usual as well, so I was also estimating from that maintenance side.
I figure that it could be done, generally, but timelines would probably be tight and costs could escalate quickly, both financially and environmentally.
