About the Actual Aircraft

Designed to meet a US Army requirement for a medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) and general utility helicopter, the UH-1 Huey was first flown on October 20, 1956. Nicknamed "Huey" because of its original "HU-1" designation, this aircraft became famous during the Vietnam War, where 7,000 of them served in a variety of roles, from MEDEVAC and search and rescue to troop transport, air assault and ground attack. As a troop transporter, the Huey revolutionized warfare, giving the Army the ability to strategically position troops in various locations that were otherwise difficult to reach in the heavy jungle environment.

Die-cast metal. Fully assembled. Superb detailing in 1/72 scale. Pre-painted with pad applied markings. The first Hobby Master helicopter with the famed Shark nose art. This is the first shark nosed diecast Huey around!!! Rotors spin. Display stand included. Minimum use of plastic. Very collectable.
