	Bell UH-1F - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Bell UH-1F was a variant of the UH-1 Huey military utility helicopter.
		In 1962, the USAF asked Bell to develop a special version of the UH-1D using the General Electric T-58 turboshaft as a powerplant (the same engine in the Sikorsky S-61 Sea King).
		Bell proposed to use the shorter cabin of the model 204B but with the longer tail boom and rotor-transmission of the Bell model 205.

	Bell
		Bells are common for raising attention, and the word is also used for the ringer in telephones, on bicycles and in door bells[?].
		In the 19th century Bell was acquired by AT&T, often called Ma Bell, which maintained a telephone monopoly in the United States until 1984.
		The Bell Aircraft Corporation, now the Bell Helicopter[?] Division of the conglomerate Textron[?], manufactured a number of important early aircraft, such as the P-39 Airacobra[?].

	UH-1 Iroquois - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Bell Helicopter UH-1 Iroquois, commonly (or officially in the United States Marine Corps) known as the "Huey", is a multipurpose military helicopter, famous for its use in the Vietnam War.
		Bell model 205B- Bell's early version of the 210 built back in the late 70's, only 5 were built and sold.
		The UH-1A, B, and C models (short fuselage, Bell 204) and the UH-1D and H models (stretched-fuselage, Bell 205) each had improved performance and load-carrying capabilities.

	The Bell UH-1 Huey
		Bell proposed the concept to the Army in 1960, leading to award of a contract in July 1960 for seven "YUH-1D" prototypes.
		The Model 205 is easily distinguished from the Model 204 by the fact that the side doors have two windows, instead of one, and its skids were mounted at an angle that gave the UH-1D a nose-up attitude on the ground.
		The Model 214A was demonstrated to the Iranians, and in late 1972 the Shah's government placed an order for 287 of the type for the Iranian Army, who named it the "Isfahan", after the town where the Iranian Army's helicopter training school was based.

	UH-1 Iroquois
		The Bell[?] UH-1 Iroquois, commonly known as the "Huey," was a multipurpose military helicopter, famous for its use in the Vietnam war.
		It was developed from 1955 US Army trials from the Bell Model 204, the intial designation of HU-1 (helicopter utility) led to its nickname.
		During the conflict the craft was upgraded, notably to a larger version based on the Model 205 intially designated the UH-1D which flew operationally from 1967.

	UH-1 Iroquois (Huey)
		The early Bell XH-40 had been standardized as the HU-1 and was envisioned then as the replacement for the L-20 utility airplane and the H-19 utility helicopter.
		The Model 212 was the UH-1N, the primary 1st Special Operations Wing Huey, while the Model 412 was the 212 with a four-blade rather than two-blade motor.
		The single engine Models 204 and 205 were skid-equipped helicopters with a single, two-blade, all-metal, anti-torque tail rotor mounted on the left side of the tailboom.

		This large, 1:32 scale Topping model of the Bell 204B is finished in overall white, similar to the original prototype which was white with a red stripe.
		Bell proposed to use the shorter cabin of the model 204B but with the longer tail boom and rotor-transmission of the model 205 (essentially the commercial 204B with a larger engine).
		The Bell HH-1H for the USAF was a very limited, early 1970's production and this Piazzai model in 1:50 scale falls into the same category; it represents one of the rarer versions of the famous Bell "Huey" line that has been captured in model form and is no longer available from the Italian maker, Piazzai.

	The Bell UH-1 Huey
		It was powered by a Lycoming T53-L-1 turboshaft with 700 horsepower; used the traditional Bell main-tail rotor configuration, with a two-bladed rotors and a stabilizing "teetering bar" on the main rotor; and was fitted with skid landing gear.
		It is easily distinguished from the Model 204 by the fact that the side doors have two windows, rather than one.
		Bell offers a UH-1H update designated the "UH-1HP Huey II", which involves modifying the Lycoming T53-L-13 engine up to T53-L-703 standard, giving it 400 more horsepower for a total of 1,800 horsepower; a new dynamic system, derived from that of the UH-1N and the Model 212, to handle the greater horsepower; and new avionics.

		Bell Helicopter won the competition for an interim fast armed escort helicopter in March 1966, against the Sikorsky S-61 and the Kaman H-2 Tomahawk, while the Army was waiting for the fielding of the AAFSS AH-56A Cheyenne.
		The Bell (model 47) H-13 Sioux, with a crew of three, was one of the most popular light utility helicopters ever built.
		An important Bell innovation during the early development of the helicopter was the use of short weighted gyrostabilizer bar at 90° to, and beneath, the main rotor.

		The Bell Model 204B and 205A1 are the civil counterparts to the highly successful UH1B and UH1H Iroquois military helicopters.
		The 204 was something of a quantum leap forward in helicopter design as it was one of the first to be powered by a turboshaft.
		The subsequent Model 205A1 is based on the UH1H, which, when compared to the B model, is greater in length and capacity, has better performance and a more powerful engine.

	Bell UH-1H
		Bell called this modified H-13D test aircraft the Bell Model 201 but the Army gave it the designation XH-13F.
		Tests on these helicopters (Bell Model 204) were successful and Bell and the Army signed a contract to build 200 production medevac versions plus 100 outfitted as instrument trainers to teach pilots to fly at night and in bad weather.
		Bell and its licensees built more than 16,000 helicopters in the Huey family, including the Huey Cobra gunship variant (Cobras used the same rotors, engine, and transmission system as the UH-1).

	US Helicopters in Vietnam : Bell UH-1 Series Utility Helicopters
		Bell began development of the XH-40 prototype in 1955 to meet an Army specification for a general utility helicopter.
		The "Huey" as it was called after it's original model designation, the HU-1, was essentially a stretched Bell (model 47) Sioux with room for seven troops or three stretchers in it's cargo compartment behind the pilot.
		The difficulties were that such chemical emissions are present in only a few parts per billion, and so did not Positively mean hostile troops were present but merely suggested humans somewhere upwind of the helicopter, and the unmistakable noise of the helicopter gave several minutes' warning of its approach.

	Bell UH-1 "Huey"
		The most famous helicopter in the world is the Bell UH-1 Iroquois, most commonly referred to as the "Huey." The Huey, which first flew in 1956, serves in front-line service in the U.S. military and the militaries of many nations and will continue to do so for many years to come.
		The first Bell helicopter to use a turbine engine was a modified Model 47 designated the XH-13F and flown in October 1954.
		Bell actively marketed the craft for more than the narrow medevac role, and the pre-production aircraft proved so popular among servicemen who were used to piston-powered aircraft that the Army soon ordered even more of the craft.

		The last variant of the Model 204 bought by the Army was the "UH-1M", which was obtained both as new-built rotorcraft and as conversions from UH-1Cs.
		That model appeared in the late 1940s, as other manufacturers began to break Sikorsky's hold on large military helicopter contracts with designs such as the tandem-rotor Piasecki HUP-1.
		During the restoration, the aircraft was repainted in 1965 Marine markings, with model number YP-13, to represent a significant aircraft assigned to Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron 163.

		Bell also built a company-sponsored, scaled-down prototype using H-13/Model 47 series components, its Model 207 Sioux Scout.
		The urgent need for greater armed helicopter performance in Vietnam and the success of the 209 led to Army orders for prototypes and production models of the 209 as interim attack helicopters, pending production of the AAFSS (which, finally, was never to occur).
		Other models followed for special Navy use: the HH-1Ks equipped for air station search and rescue duty, the TH-1Ls as advanced instrument trainers, and a few of the L models in standard utility configuration as UH-1Ls.
