Product Information

Wingspan: N/A
Model Length: 12.7"
Code: PW07049

The earlier "short-body" Hueys were a success, especially in the gunship role, but lacked the cabin space to be an effective troop transport. The US Army wanted a version that could carry a crew of four (two pilots and two door gunners) and also deliver an infantry section of eight-ten soldiers. Bell's solution was to stretch the UH-1B fuselage by 41 inches (105 cm) and use the extra space to fit two sideways-facing seats on either side of the transmission. This brought the total seating capacity to 15, including crew seats. 

The new Huey was designated UH-1D by the US Army and as the Model 205 by Bell. The enlarged cabin could also accommodate six stretchers, double that of the earlier models, making the "Delta" a good MEDEVAC aircraft. In place of the earlier model's sliding side doors with a single window, larger doors were fitted which had two windows, plus a small "hinged panel" with an optional window, providing access to the cabin. The doors and hinged panels were quickly removable and the Huey could be flown in that configuration. 

Armament Variable, but may include a combination of:

  • 2x 7.62 mm M60 machine gun, or 2x 7.62 mm GAU-17/A machine gun 
  • 2x 7-round or 19-round 2.75 in (70 mm) rocket pods  

The UH-1D Iroquois Huey Gunship model helicopter is brought to life through this meticulously hand-carved mahogany wood done by highly experienced craftsmen. Scaled from an exact blueprint, this piece of art was lavished and hand-painted with great concern for details and accuracy. A wood base enhanced by a metal history plate comes with this desktop model helicopter.
