The HKP 2 is the only helicopter that has served in all three branches of the Swedish defense forces. This HKP 2 was delivered in 1959 to the Armeflygkar's (Swedish army) and was used, among other things, for transporting wounded and laying mines. During a period in the mid-1960s, it was placed on the Swedish civilain register and participated in an expedition to Svalbard. Later it was transferred to the Flygvapnet air flotilla F 7 at Såtenäs. The HKP 2 came to the Flygvapenmuseum in 1986 after having flown just over 1,000 hours. This photo is copyright © Alastair T. Gardiner, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
