The Croatian Air Force and Air Defence (Croatian: Hrvatsko ratno zrakoplovstvo i protuzračna obrana – HRZ i PZO) operates sixteen Bell OH-58 Kiowa armed reconnaissance helicopters. OH-58s in HRZ i PZO service belong to the later built OH-58D Kiowa Warrior version, which differs from earlier variants, most notably, by the use of the distinctive Mast-Mounted Sight above the main rotor, and weapon pylons for a mixture of gun and missile armament.
