They used the Bell Uh-1 "Iroquois" in Vietnam, and it was introduced in 1959. You can currently buy one for around $850,000 to $1,000,000, depending on the age and condition of it. The civilian version of the Iroquois is the Bell 204/205 model.

Answer 4

The Army had...

UH-1 Iroquois, which were nicknamed Hueys. These were made by Bell.

AH-1 Cobra. These were made by Bell.

OH-58 Kiowa. These are still made by Bell - and have become the most popular helicopter in the free world, the Bell Jet Ranger.

OH-6 Cayuse, which were nicknamed Loach. These were made by Hughes Helicopter, which is now MD Helicopters. These are also popular civilian helis.

CH-47 Chinook. This has a nickname but I can't put it here. These are made by Boeing.
