abstract
  • The Huey is famed for its ruggedness, able to continue flying even after sustaining serious damage. Designed as a multi-role aircraft, the helicopter remains best known as a troop transport but has also operated in the gunship, casevac and reconnaissance roles, and has been adopted for civilian use. During the Vietnam War, Huey gunship's were often custom-modified for their task by crews in the field. While the UH-1 has been officially phased out of US military service and replaced with the UH-60 Black Hawk, several are still operated by the National Guard. The helicopter continues to find use elsewhere around the globe.
