TOP 10:Helicopters - UH-1 Huey(No.3)

great helicopter...probably only one that truly deserves to be where it is on this list based on the wide spectrum of aircraft covered...pioneering, versatile, still used after almost 50 years

how would they ever even know how many VC were killed? did they count the bodies? ya, sure they did. guess you could say, all those names on the wall got their asses kicked, all the guy lives destroyed, by that war got their asses worse then kicked, they still live it every day of their lives. its easy to talk shit on your keyboard, when you don't know what war really is. remember we LOST that police action.

a UH-1 Heuy, stolen from the Argentines in the Falkland wars, Flew above us 5 meter when it came to land

Was such an epic sight

one of the best choppers ever built. it was years ahead of its time when it entered service back in the sixtys and there is still loads in frotline service threw out the world today . got a flight in a Bell 212 civilian version of UH1N when i was a kid and i loved it.

I agree its an awesome helicopter but not that it was ahead of its time. I think in the 60s it was time for the helicopter to be perfected.

my dad just loves the sound of the huey,during the vietnam war,he would just cheer because he heard australian or american hueys fly past

In Vietnam? because Americans *didn't* get their asses handed to them, they did exceptionally well. In fact the kill ratios there were unprecedented. It wasn't until after the peace treaty was signed and US left that North decided to break it and invade South again and that's how it was lost. If we knew that was gonna happen and stayed another year it would have clearly been a win.

If US was defeated in Vietnam War, it was by American media/politicians or trusting N. Vietnam with ceasefire.
