Mgellis Posted April 25, 2013 Report Posted April 25, 2013 Aérospatiale Alouette II (SA 313 / SA 318 Alouette II) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A%C3%A9rospatiale_Alouette_II "The Aérospatiale Alouette II (French pronunciation: [alwɛt], Lark) is a light helicopter originally manufactured by Sud Aviation and later Aérospatiale, both of France. The Alouette II was the first production helicopter to use a gas turbine instead of a conventional heavier piston engine." --Wikipedia "The Alouette II was mostly used for military purposes in observation, photography, air-sea rescue, liaison and training but it has also carried anti-tank missiles and homing torpedoes. As a civilian helicopter it was used for casualty evacuation (with two external stretcher panniers), crop-spraying and as a flying crane (with a 500 kg external sling load)." --Wikipedia Over a thousand were built and some are still in service. Definitely worth adding to the HUD-4. ANW HUD-4 v1.11 Quote
