Historical Information

The RAH-66 Comanche was an advanced reconnaissance and combat support helicopter project developed for the United States Army as part of an aviation modernization program. The aircraft was created in response to the battlefield needs of the late 20th century and represented the pinnacle of stealth technology and avionics. The project began in the 1980s, and prototypes were first flown in the early 1990s (during the Cold War and 1990s). Ultimately, the program was cancelled in 2004 due to high costs and changing operational requirements, but the Comanche went down in history as one of the most advanced helicopters in the world.
