The Texas Helicopters M-79T Hornet was an American training helicopter developed by Texas Helicopters. It saw use as a prototype in 1985, but only one prototype, registration N1001X, was ever produced.[1]
Description
[edit]The M-79T Hornet uses an Allison 250-C20B engine, and is a modified variant of the Bell 47G. It is a two-seater, and was used by the United States Military as a proposed trainer helicopter for Apache pilots for a brief period of time. It is constructed of mainly metal, and was modified to have separate features of the 47G.[2] The maximum take-off weight is 1,440 kg, and other statistics were never tested.[1]
Usage
[edit]The M-79T was tested as a prototype trainer attack helicopter for AH-64 "Apache" crews,[2] and was proposed to the US military for production, but the plans were never realized.[3] The M-79T received FAA certification on April 25, 1985.[4] It was put on display at the Paris Air Show in June 1985, but was never publicly seen again.[1]
Units
[edit]- N1001X - The only prototype ever produced, was tested but later scrapped
