UH-1V Iroquois (Huey)
On 7 September 2001, the Army announced a significant acceleration of the Aviation Modernization Plan. This acceleration advanced the retirement of aging aircraft and reduced the number of helicopters in the active and Reserve components by 1,000. By the end of 2004, there was expected to no longer be AH-1 Cobra as or UH-1 Hueys in the Army. By that date, the Army's operational helicopter fleet would contain only AH-64 Apaches, UH-60 Black Hawks, CH-47 Chinooks and OH-58 Kiowas.
