Volt időszak, amikor a Bell is próbálkozott a Honvédségnél. A 2013-as repülőnapra el is hozták a Bell 407 GT-t.

"The Government of Iraq has requested to buy five (5) Armed Bell 407GX helicopters configured with five (5) M240 7.62mm Machine Guns. Also included are five (5) RF-7850A Secure Communications Radios, five (5) AN/AAR-60 MILDS Automatic Plume Detectors, five (5) AN/ALE-47 Airborne Countermeasure Dispensing Systems, five (5) M3P .50 Caliber Machine Guns, five (5) M260 Rocket Launchers (APKWS Configuration), five (5) MX-15Di EO/IR Sensors, five (5) GAU-19 .50 Caliber Machine Guns, five (5) Pathfinder Mission Management Systems, five (5) ARES Weapon Management Systems, five (5) Mission Configurable Armament Systems (MCAS), night vision compatible lighting systems, aircraft intercommunications systems (ICS), cockpit and seat armor kits, and bifurcated exhaust infrared suppressor systems, operating manuals, spare parts, maintenance and operator training for radio systems, technical and logistics support services, and other related elements of logistical and program support. The total estimated program cost is $82.5 million."
$82.5 million = 23,4 milliárd forint
$16.5 million = 4,7 milliárd Ft az egy gépre jutó költség.
(összehasonlításképpen: 20 db H-145M 100 milliárd Ft. 5 milliárd Ft az egy gépre jutó költség)
Persze nekünk nem ennyiért adnák az amerikaiak.
