The Hughes OH-6 Cayuse is an American light observation and reconnaissance helicopter from the Cold War and modern times. The prototype's flight took place in 1963, and the machine entered service in 1966. The helicopter - in the AH-6C version - is 9.8 m long, and the main rotor diameter is 8.33 meters. The drive is provided by a single Allison T63-A-5A or Allison T63-A-700 engine with 317 HP. Its maximum speed reaches 282 km / h. The helicopter has a classic layout with a single main rotor and a propeller on the tail boom.
The Hughes OH-6 Cayuse was developed for the needs of the US Army aviation, which in 1960 announced the need for a light observation helicopter. Light Observation Helicopter - LOH for short). Hughes won the competition announced as part of the LOH program, but after the victory - paradoxically! - ran into financial and logistical problems that delayed the truly mass production of the OH-6, and at the same time led to the introduction of the OH-58 Kiowa machine to the Bell plant. However, when the company dealt with the problems, production started relatively smoothly, and the OH-6 turned out to be a very successful helicopter with a total of 23 world records for this class of rotorcraft! Machines of this type also played a significant role during the Vietnam War (1964 / 1965-1975). It is also worth adding that outside the US, helicopters OH-6 Cayuse (in various versions) have been or are still operated in Denmark, Spain and Japan, among others.
