1/72 AB 212/UH-1N Italeri 1343-F

SUPER DECALS SHEET – COLOURED INSTRUCTION SHEEThe Bell UH-1N “Twin Huey” was developed in the late 60’s for a specific requirement of the Canadian Air Force who needed an improved version of the previous UH-1H. The project was built on the basis of robust fuselage of the Bell 205. The main difference; however; was the engine. The UH-1N‚Äôs main two-bladed rotor was powered by two turbine engines capable of delivering 1;800 HP. This allowed an improvement in the cruise speed and an increase in the maximum transportable weight. Furthermore; thanks to its reliability; the ‚ÄúTwin Huey‚Äù was able to ensure discrete flying performance even with one engine fail. In various configurations (the UH-1H was in fact produced in the United States; Canada; and under license in Italy) it was used by numerous air forces; and for different duties thanks to its extraordinary flexibility.
