NOTE: RC BELL 212 IS ON THE BOTTOM HALF OF THE PAGE.
The mid size Bell 212 Twin Huey is a more powerful, longer version of the model 205. Its smaller military version became famous during the Vietnam war. It is known for its excellent power train, reliability, and versatility.
The power plant of the Bell 212 is comprised of a pair of Pratt & Whitney Canada PT-6 turbine engines, linked to the rotors through a single gearbox. This gives the Twin Huey helicopter the ability to operate, even at full loads, with one engine out. The engine of the
maritime version of the helicopter has anti corrosive protection.
The cabin of the Bell 212, depending on its mission, can hold two pilots, two crew, up to seven passengers, or four stretchers. To lessen drag on helicopters equipped with floats, they are deflated. In an emergency on board compressed air bottles are activated to inflate them.
The helicopter can be equipped with an automatic flight control system capable of maintaining cruise or hover.
Agusta produces the maritime strike version of the 212 under license in Italy. The 212 ASW is capable of all weather operations and is used for both anti-surface vessel and anti-submarine warfare. The helicopter can be distinguished from other models by its prominent dome
that houses a search radar. The radar has a range of about 90 miles. The helicopter is also equipped with submarine sensors and a dipping sonar. In the attack role it can carry homing torpedoes, depth charges, or missiles.
In addition to Italy, Greece, Iran, Peru, Spain, Turkey, and Venezuela have all purchased the maritime machine.
