Brief historical description of the Alouette III helicopter

Alouette III is a light, multi-purpose helicopter produced by the French company Sud Aviation (later Aérospatiale). Its first flight took place in 1959, and production continued until 1985. This helicopter was widely used both by military forces and civilian services all over the world, including France, India, Switzerland, Portugal, South Africa, and many other countries. Among its uses were rescue, transport, observation, and evacuation missions. It was one of the most recognisable helicopters of the Cold War and modern times — serving in numerous military operations as well as UN peacekeeping and rescue missions, for example in Nepal, Africa, or during the Indo-Pakistani wars.
