The flight of the prototype took place in 1956, and the machine entered service in 1959. The helicopter - in the UH-1D version - has a total length of 17.4 m, and the diameter of its main rotor is 14.6 meters. The drive is provided by a single 1100 HP Lycoming T-53-L-11 engine. Its maximum speed in horizontal flight reaches 220 km \/ h. The helicopter has a classic layout with a single main rotor and a propeller on the tail boom.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWork on the Bell UH-1 machine, commonly known as the Huey, started in the early 1950s, when the US Army reported a need for a new transport, medical evacuation (MEDAVAC) and multi-role helicopter. The emphasis is on the simplest and classic design as well as high reliability. Bell UH-1 helicopters performed very well during the Vietnam War (1964 \/ 1965-1975), where they underwent their baptism of fire. Due to their indiscriminate use in this conflict, they have almost become a symbol of this war. In the course of production, many development versions of this helicopter were created, among which the following can be indicated: UH-1 C (version adapted to take small arms and unguided rockets and with a more powerful engine compared to versions A and B), UH-1 D ( basic, transport, production version) or UH-1H (an improved D version with a more powerful drive unit). It is worth noting that the UH-1Y Venom version was also created, but due to the number of upgrades and improvements, it should rather be viewed as a separate helicopter model. The Bell UH-1 helicopter has gained enormous popularity and in various versions has been or is still operated by countries such as: Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Chile, Georgia, Japan, Germany and Italy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","published_at":"2025-02-08T13:45:59+02:00","created_at":"2025-02-08T13:45:59+02:00","vendor":"Hobby Boss","type":"Scale Model Kits","tags":["Brand_Hobby Boss","Category_Aircraft","Scale_1\/18 Scale","Type_Helicopters"],"price":189995,"price_min":189995,"price_max":189995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":46917493489915,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"6939319218063","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Hobby Boss - 1\/18 UH-1 Huey B (81806)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":189995,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Hobby-Boss---1-18--UH-1-Huey-B--81806.jpg?v=1739015161"],"featured_image":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Hobby-Boss---1-18--UH-1-Huey-B--81806.jpg?v=1739015161","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":38093582729467,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.514,"height":426,"width":645,"src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Hobby-Boss---1-18--UH-1-Huey-B--81806.jpg?v=1739015161"},"aspect_ratio":1.514,"height":426,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Hobby-Boss---1-18--UH-1-Huey-B--81806.jpg?v=1739015161","width":645}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch1\u003e1\/18 UH-1 Huey B\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHobby Boss 81806\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eExcludes all \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/collections\/plastic-kit-model-glues\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eglues\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/collections\/paints\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003epaints\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jixhobbies.co.za\/collections\/tools-desk-top-storage\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003etools\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e necessary to assemble.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBell UH-1 Iroquois (commonly known as Huey) is a multirole helicopter of American production from the Cold War and modern times.
