This month Hughes Tool will begin delivering its turbine-powered Army OH-6A light observation helicopter, which does away with the heavy knuckles. Even more sophisticated models are on the way. Bell's armor-plated AH-1G next year will give the Army its first helicopter designed as an aerial artillery platform. Hughes, aiming at a future 110-passenger intercity transport, built its experimental XV-9A hot-cycle model, which is powered by hot gases shooting...
