The first helicopters in French Indochina were two Hiller 360s in 1950. Four similar H-23As were taken over from the US Army in early 1952, and 51-16120 was one of them. The H-23A had quickly been withdrawn from the war in Korea. The French installed uprated engines later on. The ambulance pods seem to be the same as in photo 676511 and they were not practical. Photo taken somewhere in Cochinchina, the southernmost part of Vietnam. This airframe survives at La Ferté-Alais! Photo by: Raoul Coutard / ECPAD
