Fleet Listing (1962- ):

Navy Helicopters

These fleet listings gives a complete survey of all aeroplanes, hydroplanes, aircrafts, helicopters etc. in service with the Naval Air Servise since the early start in 1912 and to the present day.

When the Royal Danish Airforce was formed as a separate branch in 1950, all aircrafts from the Naval Air Service and Army Air Coprs were transferred hereto. Since 1962 the RDN has only been operating helicopters.

The fleet listings are made in chronological order. For faster loading on the net, the listings are separated into different time periods.
