Bell AH-1G Cobra Diecast Model
US Army, 1973

Bell AH-1G Cobra   13.25"   11"

Bell built 1,116 AH-1Gs for the US Army between 1967 and 1973, and the Cobras chalked up over a million operational hours in Vietnam. During the post-Vietnam War period, a number of AH-1Gs were painted in unusual schemes or in the familiar USAF Southeast Asia scheme as depicted here. This AH-1G also continued the use of the trademark shark mouth.


Bell AH-1G Cobra

Designed to meet an urgent US Army requirement for a helicopter gunship, the Bell AH-1 Cobra—sometimes referred to as the Snake—was first flown on September 7th, 1965. Capable of using a variety of weapons covering the gamut of rocket pods, cannon pods, minigun pods, and missiles, the Cobra’s main armament is its three-barrel 20mm Gatling gun mounted in a chin turret. The Cobra's primary mission was to give fire support to troop-carrying Hueys. Fast, heavily armed, and highly maneuverable, the narrow 38 inch wide airframe presented a much more difficult target than its predecessors.
