The UH-1N was developed from a project of the US based Bell Helicopter
company at the end of the 60s. In Italy, a similar version is produced
on license by Agusta Westland under the designation AB-212. The AB-212
is a medium, two-blade rotor powered by two Pratt & Whitney PT6T
turbo shaft power turbines providing 1.342 Kw. It is a development of
model 205, the main difference being an elongated fuselage. In the first
half of the 2000s, the AB 212 was massively updated to enhance its
operational capacity. It has been fitted with two 7,62mm swivelling
machine guns on the tailgates, and the defensive equipment has been
upgraded with antimissile flare launchers and additional ceramic and
kevlar armour to protect the crew. Italian AB 212s with this upgraded
configuration are employed since 2006 in Afghanistan, in the International Security Assistance Force mission.
