    Gary's Combat Aircraft Reference Guide

    GENERAL DATA Country of Origin: USA. Similar Aircraft: Hirundo A109, Lynx, OH-58 Kiowa, UH-1 Iroquois, UH-1N Model 212. Crew: Two. Role: Attack. Scout. Armament: Missiles, rockets, machine guns. Dimensions: Length: 40 ft (12.2 m). Rotor diameter: 35 ft (10.7 m). NOTES The OH-58D Kiowa Warrior is a single-engine, single-rotor, four-bladed armed reconnaissance helicopter. The crew consists of two rated aviators. The pilot occupies the right seat while the CPO (copilot-observer) occupies the left seat to operate the systems. It can be armed with a wide assortment of weapons and thus can be configured for a variety of threat situations. The MMS (mast-mounted sight) is used only for targeting, not for flying the aircraft. The MMS sensors are approximately 6 feet above the pilot's eyes. This allows the crew to view an area while keeping the aircraft masked. The MMS houses the TIS (thermal imaging sensor), TVS (television sensor), LRF/D (laser range finder/designator), and optical boresight assembly. Camouflage, ambient weather, age and/or condition of sensors, and the type of terrain are major factors that affect MMS range capabilities. DESCRIPTION
