Light Utility Helicopters are versatile aircraft designed for various missions, including transport, reconnaissance, and medical evacuation. They typically have a maximum takeoff weight of around 3,000 to 6,000 pounds and can carry a small number of passengers or cargo. Their agility and ability to operate in confined spaces make them ideal for both military and civilian applications. These helicopters often feature advanced avionics and can be equipped with different payloads, such as cameras for surveillance or medical equipment for emergency services. Popular models include the Bell 206 and Robinson R44, known for their reliability and ease of use.
