Looking at the specs here:

 

http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/oh-58.htm

 

 

They seem real close to the specs here.

BTW, and I bet you already know this, the Kiowa Warrior is the Bell helo 406.

 

The specs I posted are for the Bell helo 407.

Thanks for All. :)

In a pinch you could also use information on the Bell Longranger. I believe they are the same helicopter.

 

EDIT: Or I could read the whole thread and see that has already been mentioned...

What countrys have the OH-58D in service?

[KILSEK]

Hi all and Chizh.

 

That's a good question.

 

These sites:

http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:COdoPM9NlSYJ:fpc.state.gov/documents/organization/16259.pdf+Oh-58D+export+sales&hl=en

 

http://www.fas.org/asmp/profiles/notif_db.php?regionin=%&ctryin=%&descin=Oh-58D&date1in=1992&date2in=2005&typein=%

 

Are all stating that Taiwan paurchased 13 of them in 1997.

 

 

 

Now the first paragraph here:

 

http://www.army-technology.com/projects/kiowa/

 

Is stating where they are/have been deployed by the U.S.A.

So, is there OH-58D stayed in Taiwan and US service only?

[KILSEK]

Hi all and Chizh.

 

Yes. According to all information available, Taiwan and the U.S.A. are the only 2 countries to have it.
