The United States Army Aviation Systems Test Activity conducted a limited tail boom flight load survey of the AH-1G helicopter equipped with a Model 212 tail rotor. Tests were performed to obtain base-line tail boom load data with a tractor tail rotor installation, then repeated with the Model 212 tail rotor installed on the same helicopter. 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.
