Bell Helicopter tells ANN the helomaker recently delivered another H-1 Upgrade aircraft, and brought February's delivery total to three for the program.

The third aircraft, a UH-1Y utility helicopter, was accepted by the US Marine Corps on February 26. Final assembly of the aircraft was completed at Bell's Military Aircraft Assembly Center in Amarillo, TX.

Two other H-1 aircraft have been delivered so far this year. An AH-1Z attack aircraft was delivered on February 8, and another UH-1Y was delivered February 13. In addition to these three H-1s, Bell's Amarillo facility also completed and delivered two V-22 Osprey aircraft in February.
