Photo Comment

Manufactured as an AH-1G, the initial production version of the Cobra, former 67-15589 was modified to an AH-1F circa 1980. Retired from the Tennessee Army National Guard in 2001, the helicopter was acquired by Army Aviation Heritage Foundation in 2006 and returned to flying status. It's pictured in the Foundation's Sky Soldiers Demo Team colors.
