snake36bravo Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) Pictures are too large to post, 5312 x 2988, but this is an original AH-1G that got the AH-1S Mod. If anyone wants more images, weapons stores - Hellfire, Stinger, TOW, 19 shot pod, tail fin, etc. just message me. I can go back to get more. I ran out of time and was not able to complete the walk around however this is really a gem. http://feldzeitung.blogspot.com/2018/09/blog-post.html Edited September 30, 2018 by snake36bravo force trim not working Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whiskey Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Oh wow, that's fantastic looking! That bad boy really has been kept in pristine condition. Where's this snake at? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snake36bravo Posted October 1, 2018 Author Share Posted October 1, 2018 This one is located at Aviation Challenge part of the US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, AL. Definitely is taken care of better than some others out there. Sure is a looker! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whiskey Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Happen to get any pics of the HSS rail system in the canopy? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snake36bravo Posted October 1, 2018 Author Share Posted October 1, 2018 I can go back and get them. I ran out of time unfortunately. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BrittMac Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Snake, are you in AL? I am in the Bham area. I helped out with a video with them and drones a couple years ago (when drones were new). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cobrahistorian Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 (edited) Weird that they put Hellfires and Stingers on it, but a nice lookin Snake nonetheless! Edited October 15, 2018 by Cobrahistorian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
snake36bravo Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 Affirm on that BrittMac, Redstone. I imagine the staff wanted to show the varied load out possible for display purposes. I agree and have to say this AH-1S MOD is actually looking better than their other AC and certainly better than that poor old B model Huey on their water survival station for the cadets. (The B has both sighting stations present. Old gunship rotting away) Whiskey, here are the pictures of the HSS - Helmet Sight Subsystem as best as I could get. I was not able to coordinate with their director to unbutton the canopy or they would be better. Still okay though. Sorry about Thumbkin - He's always showing up to screw up a photograph Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whiskey Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Lol, thumbkin, haha. No worries, really appreciate it. I've never really been able to find decent photos online of the HSS and the Cobra's I have around me have awful cockpits or the canopy is painted so yeah. Thanks mate!
