An export version of the American Iroquois for the German army with an enlarged fuselage, a new rotor system, and a new engine!
Experience using the UH-1 multipurpose helicopters revealed that this aircraft had no noticeable flaws and turned out to be quite effective. Needless to say, the success of the Iroquois helicopters did not go unnoticed by allies of the United States. When the USA released the UH-1D model, the West German government agreed to purchase a license to manufacture the latest Iroquois helicopters at German factories, particularly those of the Dornier company. Between February 1967 and the end of 1981, German aircraft manufacturers constructed 352 UH-1D helicopters.
How is the UH-1D version of the Iroquois helicopter different from the base one? First of all, in terms of size. The payload of the UH-1B was increased greatly, so in the UH-1D modification the fuselage was extended and widened, and the overall length of the helicopter was increased by over a metre. A new rotor that had a wider blade span was installed, as well as all-movable stabilizers like those in the UH-1C. The shape of the nose section of the fuselage was changed: the bottom of the hull was now rounded rather than flat, and the position of the antennae and signal lights were altered. The German manufacturer decided against the armoured pilots’ seats that were used in Iroquois helicopters during the Vietnam War, so the UH-1D has no armour on the seats. For the UH-1D in War Thunder, we have decided to introduce several weapon loadouts that have been used with the UH-1 series.
In the game, the UH-1D can be found at rank V in the German helicopter tech tree. Pilots of the German Iroquois helicopters will have access to six-barreled 7.62mm miniguns placed in two containers along the sides of the fuselage, unguided Hydra-70 rockets, and six AGM-22 ATGMs that can be used to penetrate most ground targets at its rank.
Like the American UH-1B and UH-1C, the German Iroquois fits into rank V battles well, and it also has the same potential to take on more advanced vehicles. Since the helicopter has no seat armor and only one engine, the pilot will have to learn to avoid any enemy fire. It would also be wise to research flak jackets for pilots as your first modification. Before researching the ATGM we recommend avoiding large-scale skirmishes with ground vehicles and focus on destroying “snipers” and light armoured vehicles. However, you’ll have a lot more options once you’ve installed anti-tank missiles. Those six missiles will allow you to calmly pick off several enemies during every sortie. As long as you keep your distance, aim your missiles carefully, and stay out of the crosshairs of anti-air guns, you’ll be unmatched!
The UH-1D will be available for everyone after the release of the War Thunder update 1.83!

Packup bois we are sending this huey to Vietnam
Wait a minute... Thats a big Huey variant
Well, they were transport and SAR helos, which makes a bigger size advantageous. Gaijin just strapped fantasy weapons on it - German Hueys were never armed.
The BO 105 is a great addition to the German lineup, but not this machine. Other German helicopters out there like the EC665 (Tiger). Maybe a bit too modern...but what he heck.
well, the AH-1Z is 2010 helo, the Tiger a 2003. Also the UH Tiger can't do anything the AH-1Z can't do
Please can a mod anwer my question: will we be able to do tasks with german rank 5 vehicles to get to the CBT like russian and american tankers/pilots did ?
are T-72 and bradley coming this patch?
they are not on the dev server so I guess no
Don't really mind fantasy RP pinata for my tanks.
Funny and so true. Helicopters have a short game time. What would help a bit is AAA support around the helipad zone.
I just saw Napalmrattes video about the additions to the german Tree in 1.83. The NVA Hind is in the Lineup and i love Gaijin for that!!!
do the Brits get something anytime aswell ? its a bit low that they get nothing, almost as bad as Italy and we know how that works
So in the image, they are fighting on the jungle map. Can you actually make this possible in top tier? I only play jungle in low tier right now.
quite giving germans and russians all the good stuff while u let the allies suffer majorly give us our guided missiles quite mixing up vehicles dont give germans. american tech we have enough cookie cutter planes and tech give them some more german if u wanna play american tech play us tree the axis should get 0 american tech period unless u want to give us migs and me 162 or 262 then we can talk about them having american tech
Its funny that the Russians arn't considered "allies", being as they have never been anything else but allies. (just saying)
