Summary
| Description |
English: The Bell 207 Sioux Scout was a modified Bell 47 developed as a proof-of-concept demonstrator for the Bell D-255 gunship design. It featuring a tandem cockpit, stub wings and a chin-mounted gun turret. The crew consisted of a pilot in the rear seat and a gunner in front, with both having flight controls.
It first flew in 1963 and proved to be very maneuverable. However in 1964 the Army decided that it was unsuitable for active service due to it's small size and lack of power. The 207 was to lead to the Bell 209 which in turn became the AH-1 Cobra, and the basic layout of the 207 has much in common with that of the world leading AH-64 Apache gunship. c/n 1.
