On 8 August 1989, the helicopter was damaged beyond repair while it was running on deck at HMAS Success during an intermediate stop. Due to ground resonance, the the left-hand undercarriage radius arm collapsed and all four rotor blades struck the flight deck. The helicopter was written off and restored for display.
