French Language book. With its graceful silhouette and its shrill whistle, the Gazelle is a helicopter whose sight has become familiar since its first flight, more than fifty-five years ago. Designed as a simple observation device, it was used well beyond this sole role, even becoming a real combat helicopter within numerous armed forces which acquired it. In the Falklands, the Middle East, the Balkans and Africa, the Gazelle has taken part in most of the conflicts of the last four decades. Today, the Gazelle's front-line career is about to end among its military users, and it is now becoming a highly sought-after collector's item: now is the time to retrace its history.
This work tells the story of the Gazelle (from the first sketches to the end of mass production) and the technical developments it introduced into the world of rotary wings (in particular the famous fenestron streamlined tail rotor). Offers a detailed description of the device before touring, as completely as possible, all the countries which have used it within their armed forces or their state services, without forgetting to address the career civilian of this device which has become iconic.
