Information

The Model 3 is a versatile light utility helicopter developed in the early 60s by the Metella Aircraft Company for observation purposes, then later upgraded for use as a support vehicle. As a result, the helicopter does not operate with the same mission as a dedicated attack helicopter such as the competition's TAL AH-69 attack helicopter. However, unlike the TAL AH-69, the Model 3 can be operated in a variety of missions, including observation, transport, attack, and more. This variety of mission compatibility makes the Model 3 a desirable vehicle for numerous operators worldwide.
