The Raven was Hiller Helicopters first production aircraft and first flew in 1948. The design was very successful with both two- and three-seat models that were sold to both civil and military markets. The HTE-2 was the Navy version of the Hiller commercial model 360. The Navy HTE-2 was equiped with a 200 HP engine and had a climb rate of 745 feet per minute. The U.S. Navy acquired the Raven and designated it the HTE-1. The Navy flew the HTE from 1948 until 1962. Later versions were the HTE-2 which were NAS Grosse Ile. NAS Grosse Ile received the first HTE-2s in 1952. |
