The Huey was the first turbine powered helicopter in production. It was designed to be a medical and a utility helicopter for the military. The Huey saw extensive usage during the Vietnam War. The most known of these missions were the ones flown by Major Bruce Crandall who flew 14 (Revell Box info) or 22 (internet sources) forays during the Battle of IA Drang. Major Crandall was the commander of A Company 229th Aviation Battalion in 1965. During this time Major Crandall flew an unarmed Huey bringing supplies and evacuating the wounded. Major Crandall flew over 900 combat missions during the Vietnam War.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For the modeler:<\/strong> This is the UH-1D Huey Gunship 1:32 Scale Monogram Model Kit #85-5536 Review.\u00c2\u00a0 Revell released this kit before with several variations (earliest 1967) and now Revell brings it back in 2012.
