1/35 UH-1D Helicopter "Huey" - 3538

The Dragon 1/35 UH-1D Helicopter "Huey" is a plastic model kit in the Dragon Modern Military range. This kit of the UH-01 Iroquois Helicopter (or Huey) from Dragon is the first in 1/35th scale. The larger scale allows enormous amounts of detail to be packed into this model of a UH-1D, an upgraded, stretched fuselage version introduced in 1963. The form and shape of the UH-1D has been accurately captured, and the detail is stunning. Four crew figures are also included, two gunners and two pilots, meaning the Huey can be displayed in battle.
The Dragon UH-01D Iroquois helicopter model builds into a most impressive centrepiece, and could be added to an atmospheric Vietnam diorama.
An enduring icon of the Vietnam War is the UH-1 Iroquois helicopter, commonly referred to as the Huey by troops. This utility helicopter, one of the worlds most recognizable designs, was widely used in Vietnam. In fact, around 7000 were deployed there (out of a total of 16,000 manufactured). Despite being a rugged design, approximately 2500 were lost to combat and accidents in Vietnam, and 2202 pilots were killed.
