H-1 Pictures

Here are a few photos of the new H-1 Upgrades aircraft in flight test.
The first is a good shot of the AH-1Z and its rotor system from above. (Note as has been mentioned in several posts to this site by Nick Lappos, as with many other helicopters in development, the tail configuration has changed- the endplates on the horizontal stabiliser are no longer on the aircraft.)



Here is a shot from testing of the emergency jettison system. (Note- endplates gone from tail.)



Here is a shot of the UH-1Y testing its emergency jettison system.



Final shot is just a nose-on look at the AH-1Z.
