Bel UH-1 Irokez (engl. Bell UH-1 Iroquois), među američkim vojnicima i američkoj javnosti poznatiji kao Hjui (engl. Huey),[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] je višenamenski lakši vojni helikopter, pogonom sa jenim turboelisni motor,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] koji je zbog svog intezivnog učešća obeležio Vijetnamski rat.[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27]

Izrađen je prema zahtevu američke vojske iz 1955. godine radi višenamenskog helikoptera.[28] Prvobitno je bio osmišljen da bude korišćen u medicinskoj službi, ali se kasnije pronašlo da može biti i savršen u prebacivanju trupa na različite lokacije i njihovom izbavljanju od opasnosti; iako je, po nekima, bio predviđen za samo šest putnika (isključujući posadu).[29][30][31][32][33] Prvi svoj let je obavio 22. oktobra 1956. g.[34][35][36] Zbog svoje prvobitne oznake HU-1 (helicopter utility - višenamenski helikopter) dobio je svoj gore pomenuti nadimak.[37][38]

Više od 16.000 ih je napravljeno širom sveta.[39]

Rat u Vijetnamu primorao je američku vojsku da skroz preorijentiše dotadašnju ratnu strategiju i razvije novu u kojoj će helikopteri igrati bitnu ulogu,[40] pa je stoga, između ostalog, počev od 1962. godine počela da koristi i ovaj Belov tip,[41] koji je učestvovao u najrazličitijim spasilačkim poduhvatima za vreme rata, spasivši pritom preko 400.000 ranjenika, što mu je donelo naročit ugled i popularnost u američkoj vojsci.[42][43] Veruje se da ih je između 5-7.000 viđeno samo u Vijetnamu.[44][45][46] Izlažući se tamo često opasnostima oboreno ih je 2.500,[47][48] a prema nekim nezvaničnim procenama ta cifra prelazi 3.000, što je konačno dovelo neke do ideje o jurišnom helikopteru.[49]

Najmanje tri civilne verzije nastale su po uzoru na Bel UH-1 Irokez Hjui.[50] Počev od 1978. godine njegovo mesto u vojsci preuzima UH-60 Blek Houk,[51][52] koji je izrađen da može prenositi 50% više tereta i trupa preko veće udaljenosti i pri višoj brzini.[53]

Razvoj[uredi | uredi izvor]

Bel XH-40, prototip od UH-1

Godine 1952. godine, američka vojska je pokrenula konkurs radi novog helikoptera koji bi poslužio prevashodno za medicinsku evakuaciju (engl. MEDEVAC), školsku i opšte javnu upotrebu.[54] Zaključeno je da su dotadašnji helikopteri tipa H-34 (koji su korišćeni u Vijetnamu počev od 1961) bili preglomazni, nedovoljno ili previše kompleksni da bi se lako održavali.[55][56]Bel helikopteri“, kompanija koja je odranije imala dosta uspeha s tipom 47G,[57] uspela je 1955. godine ponovo da zainteresuje vojsku, ovaj put svojim tipom 204 s turbinskim motorom,[58][59] koji je obavio svoj prvi let 22. oktobra 1956. godine pod oznakom XH-40.[60] Vojska je prihvatila prvi primerak septembra 1958 g.,[61] a od naredne godine jula meseca ušao je u masovnu proizvodnju bivajući pritom označen kao HU-1A.[62][63] Zvanično je imenovan „Irokez“ (po indijanskom plemenu Irokezi),[64] ali mu je kasnije nadenut nadimak Hjui, zbog originalne oznake HU-1,[65][66][67] koji se održao i onda kada je 1962. godine vojska promenila oznaku u UH-1.[68][69] Počev od 1960. godine postepeno će smenjivati helikoptere tipa Sikorski H-19D u sanitetskim jedinicama.[70]

Sve dok kompanija Avko-Lajkoming endžin (engl. Avco Lycoming engine) nije razvila svoj turbo-vratilni motor T53, dotle su helikopteri bili pokretani na klipni motor.[71] Ovaj motor, kojeg odlikuju lakoća i mnogo manje vibracije i buke, zamenio je poprilično složene i teške za održavanje klipne motore, a pojavom Hjuija stekao je slavu.[72] Ali, uprkos tome što je UH-1 Hjui dokazao da su turbinski heliopteri izuzetno poboljšanje što se tiče prve generacije obrtno-krilnih mašina, vojska je, ocenivši da je ranjiv od vatre sa zemlje, kao i da nije u stanju da operiše uspešno pri lošim vremenskim uslovima, krajem 60ih i početkom 70ih počela da izrađuje zahtev za novu, više borbeniju mašinu koja bi ga na kraju zamenila.[73][74][75]

UH-1B[uredi | uredi izvor]

UH-1B.
Kabina UH-1B-a

U periodu između 1963. i 1968. godine vojska je izradila niz verzija Hjui helikoptera od kojih su neke, poput UH-1B i AH-1G, imale izražen uticaj na potonje verzije.[76] Proizvodnja verzije B (UH-1B) počela je marta 1961. godine i za četiri godine dostigla nešto više od 1.000 primeraka.[77] U Vijetnam su počeli da pristižu 1963. g.[78]

Ova verzija niskoletećeg jurišnog helikoptera s poboljšanim motorom od 716 kW (T53-L-5),[63] naoružana s dva ili četiri mitraljeza M60 kalibra 7,62 mm i s četrnaest (a katkad i s trideset i šest) raketnih projektila od 2,75 inči (70 mm) s obe strane,[79][80][81][82][83] pokazala se u kasnijoj fazi Vijetnamskog rata delotvornom protiv oklopnih jedinica, uništivši osam severnovijetnamskih tenkova,[84] kao i u pružanju podrške rečnim jedinicama u delti reke Mekong.[85][86][87]

Ranih 60ih, nedugo nakon što su poslati prvi američki helikopteri u Južni Vijetnam, vojska je razvila verziju B, označivši je kao UH-1D, koja je imala duže telo s kabinom koja je mogla izdržati šest nosila s težim ranjenicima ili devet lakše povređenih.[88]

UH-1C[uredi | uredi izvor]

UH-1C.

Verzija C, u žargonu zvana i Hjui Krmak (engl. Huey Hog), s pogonom na razvijeniju verziju motora T53-L-11 od 820 kW,[63] predviđena je za ne više od četiri osobe, naoružana je različitom vrstom oružja: od po dva mitraljeza tipa M60 kalibra 7,62 mm, topova kalibra 40 mm, pa sve do raketa od 70 mm; a piloti su posebno davali prvenstvo XM-5 sistemu koristeći bacač granata M75.[89][90][91] Delovala je po potrebi i tokom opasnih vremenskih uslovima radi ispomaganja opkoljenih konvoja.[92] U upotrebu je uvedena 1965. g.[78]

UH-1D[uredi | uredi izvor]

UH-1D
Nemački UH-1D

Verzija D, poznata pod nadimkom Glatki (engl. Slick),[93][94] pošto je bila predviđena da izdrži čak i do petnaest lica,[95] imala je drugačiji motor (T53-L-11), koji je težio 1,1 tonu.[96][63] Takođe, ono što je čini još posebnijom jeste oružani sistem XM-21.[97] Uvedena je u uporebu 1963. godine,[78] a počev od 1967. je u službi je američkih oružanih snaga, s primarnim zadatkom da skuplja ranjenike i odnosi ih sa bojišta.[98]

Takođe, korišćena je i prilikom obavljanja zadataka tipa „pronađi i uništi“ (engl. Search and destroy).[99][100] Uspešno je sletela i uzletela jula 1967. godine sa tada eksperimentalne platforme ATC(R) najmanje u ono vreme kojom je raspolagala američka mornarica.[101]

UH-1E[uredi | uredi izvor]

UH-1E.

Verzija E je izvedena iz verzije B za potrebe američke mornaričke pešadije i u skladu s tim uvedena joj je rotorna kočnica, specijalna avijaciona elektronika, kao i spasilačka dizalica.[63] Razoružan, UH-1E je bio savršena izviđačka letelica, ali je češće preusmeravan na zadatke drugačije prirode, kao što je npr. oskrbljavanje udaljenih baza.[102]

UH-1F[uredi | uredi izvor]

UH-1F.

Verzija F je takođe izvedena iz verzije B, ali za potrebe američkog vazduhoplovstva i u skladu s tim opsosobljena je: s motorom Т58-GE-3 od 820 kW, s prečnikom rotora od 14,63 m, da izdrži 10 lica, odnosno teret od 1814 kg u vidu bočnih raketa.[63][103]

AH-1G Kobra[uredi | uredi izvor]

AH-1G Kobra

Tokom Vijetnamskog rata (1954—1975) vojsci je bio preko potreban jurišni helikopter u pravom smislu te reči, koji bi pratio transportne helikoptere štiteći ih u isto vreme od opasnosti sa zemlje.[104][105]

Radi toga još krajem 50ih kompanija „Bel helikopteri“, izučavajući mogućnosti svojih dotadašnjih helikoptera, razvila je nešto izmenjenu verziju AH-47 Sijuksa s aerodinamičnim nosom, kratkim naoružanim krilima, pokretnim topom kojim je upravljao tobdžija iza kojeg se nalazio pilot; ali se ubrzo ispostavilo da je dotična letelica poprilično nemoćna za zahtevne zadatke koje je imala da obavlja u Vijetnamu, pa je pomenuta kompanija morala da razvije mnogo boljeg AH-1G Hjuija.[106][103]

Ova poboljšana verzija počela je da se isporučuje od juna 1968. godine, a već posle tri meseca su primećeni prvi primerci u Vijetnamu.[107] Za razliku od klasičnog Hjuija, Kobra je imala vrlo uzak (najšira tačka bila je svega 975 mm široka) i uglađen trup, ali je u mnogo tome imala sličnosti: 80% njihovih delova je bilo gotovo identično.[108]

Naoružan šestocevnim mitraljez-topom kalibra 7.62 mm, a katkad i s automatskim bacačem granata od 40 mm, oskrbljen sa do čak sedamdeset i šest raketa od 70 mm, kao i električno-hidrauličnim topom od 20 mm, pokazao se u početku kao savršen eskortni jurišni helikopter (pogotovo onda kada je operisao zajedno s OH-6A Kajuzom[109]), što su mu mnogi i priznali, mada je i dalje imao niz mana, a jedna od njih bila je velika sporost zbog preopterećenosti od prethodno nabrojanih oružja.[110][111][112][113][114][115][116]

UH-1H[uredi | uredi izvor]

UH-1H.

Verzija H je nešto izmenjena verzija D, čiji je motor T53-L-13 od 1044 kW.[63][103] Kao i ostale verzije, i ova je bila raspoređena u Jugoistočnoj Aziji, pre svega na vijetnamsko bojište, gde je služila u opštoj podršci, kao teretni transporter, u vazduhoplovno-medicinskoj službi, a katkad i po potrebi kao jurišni helikopter.[117] Na bojnom terenu se pojavila krajem 1967. g.[78]

Operativna istorija[uredi | uredi izvor]

Vojska SAD[uredi | uredi izvor]

HU-1А (kasnije preimenovan u UH-1А) je ušao u službu 101. iz Fort Kempbela (Kentaki) i 82. vazdušno-desantne divizije, kao i 57. medicinskog odreda iz Fort Blisa (Teksas), čiji primerci su bili prvi koji su marta 1962. godine otišli za Vijetnam,[118] gde su stigli mesec dana kasnije.[119] Ubrzo nakon dolaska 57. medicinskog odreda u Vijetnam (gde su smešteni u blizini 8. poljske bolnice u Nja Trangu), vijetnamski pobunjenici pojačali su znatno svoje delatnosti u delti reke Mekong.[120] Do kraja jeseni oni su uspešno potisnuti sa svih sletališta od strane petnaest UH-1A-ova.[121]

Srušeni Hjui kod Ap Baka.

Ali prilikom jednog drugog okršaja koji se zbio u Ap Baku 2-3. januara 1963. godine, takođe nevelikih razmera, od ukupno četrnaest helikoptera jedanaest je pretrpelo ozbiljnja oštećenja od kojih je pet oboreno.[122][123] Američki izvori taj gubitak objašnjavaju odsustvom većeg ratnog iskustva, ali i prevelike samouverenosti koja je vladala među pilotima.[124] S druge strane, vijetnamski istoričari ocenjuju ovaj okršaj presudnim u ratu, jer po njima pobunjenici su konačno savladali kako da obaraju američke helikoptere.[125] Zbog velikog broja južnovijetnamskih vojnika koji su uzeli učešća, a posebno zbog broja oborenih američkih helikoptera, bitka kod Ap Baka skrenula je pažnju javnosti.[126]

Do sredine 1966. godine vodovi jurišnih helikoptera, od kojih se svaki sačinjavao od osam UH-1 Hjuija, bili su opterećeni zadacima širom celog Južnog Vijetnama.[127]

Gotovo 350 UH-1 Hjuija, CH–47 Činuka, OH-6 Kajuza i UH-1 jurišnih helikoptera je uzelo učešće u bici za Ke San, pruživši pomoć pešadijskim bataljonima time što je njihovu jednu trećinu odbacila na vreme.[128]

Posada amfibijskog broda USS Blue Ridge bila je primorana da potopi mnogo južnovijetnamskih Hjuija u Južno kinesko more 28. aprila 1975. ne bi li na taj način oslobodila prostor za ostale helikoptere.[129]
