Kaman HH-43A
Developed in 1952, the Kaman K-600 is a larger and more powerful version of the HTK-1. The cabin has a capacity of 5 passengers, including the crew. The U.S. Air Force designated it the H-43A (now known as HH-43A), equipping it for firefighting with a 1000 lb (450 kg) fire fighting kit and small skis [1]. Designation under the U.S. Marines is HOK-1 (now the OH-43D); under the U.S. Navy, it is HUK-1 (redesignated UH-43C). The H-43 went into service in April 1958 and was the primary helicopter for firefighting and short range rescue during the Vietnam War [2,3]. Source 1: Alex, Ralph P.
