The Bell UH-1 Iroquois (unofficially Huey) is a military helicopter powered by a single turboshaft engine, with two-bladed main and tail rotors. The helicopter was developed by Bell Helicopter to meet the United States Army's
requirement for a medical evacuation and utility helicopter in 1952,
and it first flew on 20 October 1956. Ordered into production in March
1960, the UH-1 was the first turbine-powered helicopter to enter
production for the United States military, and more than 16,000 have been built.^[1]




The first combat operation of the UH-1 was in the service of the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War. The original designation of HU-1 led to the helicopter's nickname of Huey.^[2]
In September 1962, the designation was changed to UH-1, but "Huey"
remained in common use. Approximately 7,000 UH-1 aircraft saw service in
Vietnam.
