Description: Easy Model Platinum Collection 37012 Sikorsky UH-34D Seahorse Display Model VPAF 213 Sqn, Da Nang AB, Vietnam, 1966 1:72 Scale Length WidthSikorsky UH-34D Seahorse 11" 9.25" Beginning in 1962, the H-34 served as the primary Marine Corps assault helicopter of the Vietnam War until its replacement by the turbine-powered CH-46. It began in 1952 as a Navy anti-submarine warfare helicopter evolved from the Sikorsky S-55 series. Initially designated as the HSS-1, it went on to see significant service in the combat assault and utility roles with the Army and Marine Corps. Great Britain and France also deployed versions in some of the first helicopter combat assault operations. A large payload capacity and generous center-of-gravity range made the H-34 series an effective transport helicopter for the 1950s. Sikorsky UH-34D Seahorse Designed by Sikorsky as a US Navy anti-submarine military helicopter, the CH-34 Choctaw first flew on March 8, 1954. This prolific aircraft saw action in Vietnam and is one of history's most successful helicopters, flown on every continent with the armed forces of 25 nations. It has served in an anti-submarine role, as VIP transport, for troop and utility transport and as a search and rescue vehicle. Under various designations, Choctaws have been operated by the US Marine Corps, the US Navy, the US Army and the coast guard. The type also served with the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force as the turbine-engined Wessex. Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
