	Westland "Scout" / "Wasp" helicopter - development history, photos, technical data
		The helicopter 'twins' produced by Westland as the Scout and Wasp originated in November 1957 when Saunders-Roe Ltd. began its design of a private venture for a Skeeter development and replacement.
		Although its characteristics were not outstanding, the Scout fulfilled a role in the British Army which was played by the Bell 206 in many other armies, and has only recently been superseded by the Westland Lynx.
		This differed from the army Scout by having quadricycle landing gear instead of skids, and folding rotor blades and tail section to facilitate shipboard stowage.

	The Westland Scout, Wasp, & Lynx
		As it emerged, the Lynx had little or no relationships to the Scout; in fact, it had a certain general resemblance to the US Bell UH-1 Huey and could be confused for one by an observer with a limited familiarity with helicopters.
		Westland did consider a new TOW carriage arrangement, optional T800 engines, and a wide range of other enhancements for the AH.9 as the "Battlefield Lynx" for the export market, but nobody bought off on the idea.
		The Westland 30 civil transport helicopter derivative of the Lynx had been anticipated to an extent by an earlier concept, the Westland "Model 606", which was a Lynx with a fuselage stretch to accommodate up to 13 passengers, and uprated engines to handle the greater takeoff weight.

	The Army Air Corps Historic Aircraft Flight
		One of the few helicopters of exclusively British design to have been built in quantity, the Westland Scout was developed from the Saunders-Roe P531, which was taken over when the parent company was absorbed by Westland in 1959.
		The first Scout AH Mk 1 flew in March 1961, and the type began to enter service early in 1963 as a replacement for the Saunders-Roe Skeeter, which it clearly outmoded by its combination of greater reliability, substantially improved payload and general operating superiority.
		Production amounted to 160 Scout AH Mk 1 helicopters, and these have since 1963 been standard multi-role tactical aircraft with skid landing gear, a five/six-seat cabin and the Nimbus 101 or 102 turboshaft engine.
