Caribou: Army Aviation's STOL Champion

The De Havilland Canada CV-2 Caribou is a legendary workhorse of the skies, renowned for its exceptional short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities. First taking to the skies in the late 1950s, the Caribou was initially designed for rugged, remote operations, making it an ideal candidate for military logistics and troop transport. Throughout its years of service, it has been operated by various branches of the military, but it is most famously associated with Army Aviation. The Caribou's robust design, capable of transporting cargo and personnel in and out of areas inaccessible to other aircraft, quickly made it a favorite among military pilots and logistics officers. Its operational history spans the globe, from the jungles of Vietnam to the deserts of the Middle East, showcasing its versatility and reliability. The CV-2 Caribou not only served with distinction in military roles but also found a second life in civilian operations, proving its enduring legacy in aviation history.
