The Bell 214 helicopter was ordered by the Iranian army in the 1970s
after Iran bought 25 Bell 205s these helicopters were not good for the mountains of Iran, and Iran wanted a helicopter with a powerful engine, which ordered 300 Bell 214A, and 35 Bell 214C and also ordered a special helicopter for special forces, which was Bell 214st,
but Iran did not receive the 214st after the revolution, and Bell Company sold all the 214st helicopters of Iran to the Saddam.
bell 214B is only civilian type of 214 Helicopters
This is Story of the Bell214 , I said it just for knowing, Greetings from Iran 👋🏻

Super nice to see. Bell 214B Big Lifter, It's larger blade and more engine powered than Bell 204.
Είσαι παντου…Μπραβο σου και ευχαριστουμε
This is a really great video! I was flying 676 that day departing Athens. I have shared a link with the rest of the crews..
Thanks for sharing!
These things are real beasts! Had the U.S. Army not had the UH-60 Black Hawk baking in the oven back in the 1970s, we would have probably seen them upgrade their fleet of UH-1H Hueys to this standard. And considering that many UH-1H models soldiered on into the late 1990s or early 2000s in Guard units, the upgrade may have been worth it anyway. The bigger engine, rotor and improved transmission used in the Bell 214 offered an enormous leap in performance over the 205.
incredible catch! great video quality! thanks for sharing!
Thank you!

@@11AviationVideos wow i was thinking 1000 max
Does anyone know why McDermott Aviation (an Australian operator), have these aircraft on the U.S. register?
@@heli-crewhgs5285 because they just opened a facility in Alabama. Most of the 214ST's will be going there for maintenance and modifications.
@@madmanmyke160 Thank you. BTW, these a/c are Bell 214Bs, not 214STs.
They are faster and alot more powerful than the 205 and 212..
great helos!
The cost to buy one?
No idea if they sell them or just lease the operartion. I guess there is a price unknown to me.
