The United States Army Aviation Systems Test Activity conducted a limited performance and handling qualities evaluation of the AH-1G helicopter with a Bell Helicopter Company commercial Model 212 tail rotor installed. This installation included changes to the pitch links and pitch control tube to accommodate the Model 212 tail rotor; however, the remaining components of the tail rotor drive system were standard AH-1G items. The evaluation was performed during the period 29 May to 7 August 1973 at Edwards Air Force Base, Bakersfield, and Bishop, California. (Modified author abstract)
