The US Army requirement for a light utility helicopter was
formulated after the Korean War. Bell's Model 204 design won a
competition in 1955, and was given the military designation H-40,
later renamed the HU-1 Iroquois. The original design called for a
helicopter that could be used for transport, airborne battlefield
command and control, medical evacuation, fire support co-ordination
and search and rescue. Later its missions would be expanded to
include troop insertion/extraction, armed escort and special
operations. This title details all the technological background
behind the development and use of the Huey " Slick" in Vietnam, as
well as covering all the major uses that this transport aircraft
was put to.
