War Thunder [Development] AH-1G Cobra: Strike Fast, Strike Hard

---

[Development] AH-1G Cobra: Strike Fast, Strike Hard Posted: 30 Aug 2018 12:50 AM PDT The AH-1G Cobra is a dedicated attack helicopter design, derived from the well-known UH-1 Huey, which primarily supported the combat actions of U.S. forces in the Vietnam War. Keep your head inside your hatch tankers, the Cobra is coming in hot with the release of War Thunder update 1.81! Briefly: The Huey's worthy successor in the gunship role, sporting excellent speed and handling characteristics in combination with deadly weaponry. Parallel to the development of the UH-1 transport helicopter, Bell was actively conducting research on helicopter gunship designs. This resulted in the creation of the "Iroquois Warrior", a mockup of a gunship design based on components from the UH-1B Huey. The mockup was presented to interested Army officials in June 1962, resulting in a proof-of-concept contract later that year. Following the contract award, Bell created the Model 207 "Sioux Scout", which was evaluated by the Army in early 1964. Be on the lookout for the arrival of the AH-1G Cobra to the skies of War Thunder with the release of the upcoming update 1.81. Be sure to also stay tuned to the news for more information regarding the next major update. Until then, safe flying pilots!
