The development of the iconic Vietnam era military helicopter, still in widespread service all over the world.
The Bell 212 is a two-blade, twin-engine, medium helicopter that first flew in 1968. Outside of its military role it’s marketed to civilian operators and has a fifteen-seat configuration, with one pilot and fourteen passengers. In cargo configuration the 212 has an internal capacity of 220 ft³. An external load of up to 5,000 lb can be carried.
This one is a modified real helicopter. The main structural addition is a substantial base for attachment to a gimbal. A truly multirole helicopter; military troop carrier , cargo, coast guard, police chopper..
The set is standing at our facility and ready to shoot. Alternatively it will easily transport to your location. Although not shown in these images we do have a a tail boom that attaches to make the helicopter complete
