Default Re: Early U.S. Army armed helos

The US Army formally adopted an armed version of the OH-23 Raven (two 30's) after Korea.
Now, if it was actually fielded is another story! But it was officially adopted.
As came up in the discussion in my custom OOB thread there were ad-hoc field mods of the system for years before the "official" version was adopted.
