About This Item
(Subject: Osprey Aviation) The Bell Huey Cobra was the first purpose-designed helicopter gunship to become operational and to see combat. Designed in the mid-1960s as an interim solution for an armed escort and close-support weapon for the US Army in the Vietnam War, it is still being manufactured and improved in the 21st century. Chris Bishop discusses the origins of the Huey Cobra, the innovations to its design throughout the years and its major combat uses in numerous theatres. These include Vietnam, the Persian Gulf, Lebanon 1983, Panama 1989, the Gulf War 1991 and the 2003 Iraq War. Marine Corps AH-1Ws are also engaged in current operations in Afghanistan.
