Delivered in late 1964, A2-1020 was deployed to Vung Tau in Vietnam in 1966 with 9 Sqdn and in August that year, was involved in the most significant Australian action of the Vietnam War, resupplying surrounded Australian troops at Long Tan. When 9 Sqdn re-equipped with the more capable UH-1D, it returned to Australia in April 1968 for service with 5 Sqdn in the training role and from 1970 to 1983 was rotated around units at RAAF Williamtown, RAAF Pearce and RAAF Darwin on SAR duties. It returned to 5 Sqdn before becoming a ground training aid in 1984. Now shown in its Vietnam configuration.

Flew with the RAAF and Australian Army from 1973 to 2017.

Operated by the Washington State Department of Natural Resources.

Reserialled H-2060 by the time it ended service. A relatively new addition to the collection, first noted here in 2017

Preserved at Asuncion, visible from outside the airfield, is this former Paraguayan UH-1B in bright SAR-colours.

ex H-034, ex Taiwan 398, this Huey has seen better days, in storage at its homebase.

The cabin well protected against the hot sun by an overdose of paint on the windows, UH-1B PR-H-005 is part of an impressive row of aircraft preserved at the main gate of Ñu Guazú.

ex H-032, and put up for sale, this Huey was one of a bunch obtained from the Republic of China (Taiwan), ex 323, and was built by AIDC.

One of many hidden treasures at Ñu Guazú, in this case under a tree, so hard to find for the Google Earth fanatics. PR-H-004 is one of three UH-1Bs once used.

ex H-033, and still active here, this Huey was one of a bunch obtained from the Republic of China (Taiwan), ex 337, and was built by AIDC.

ex H-036, and still active here, this Huey was one of a bunch obtained from the Republic of China (Taiwan), ex 393, and was built by AIDC.
