Hiller Oh-23g
Manufacturer: HILLER
The Hiller OH‑23 Raven is a two‑ to four‑seat military light observation helicopter derived from the Hiller Model 360. It entered service in the late 1940s and was widely used by the U.S. Army, Navy, and many foreign air forces for scouting, training, and medical evacuation. The aircraft is known for its simple, robust design and the distinctive “goldfish‑bowl” canopy introduced in later models.
