The Bell UH-1 Iroquois “Huey” is one of the most iconic helicopters ever flown by the Royal Australian Air Force during the Vietnam War. In this build, I attempt to recreate A2-1022, the very aircraft that played a crucial role in the Battle of Long Tan, delivering vital supplies to surrounded Australian soldiers in one of the most famous and intense Australian engagements of the war.
Using the Italeri 1/72 scale UH-1B Huey kit as a base, I transform this model into a detailed replica of A2-1022, complete with:
Custom decals
3D-printed RAAF helicopter crew
Hand-painted camouflage and weathering effects
Whether you're into RAAF history, Vietnam War dioramas, or just love building helicopters in 1/72 scale, this is a model you won’t want to miss.
🎖️ Join me as I bring this legendary aircraft to life and honour a piece of ANZAC military history in miniature.
