The WY-55 Hellcat was initially designed and operated as a Multi-Role Utility Helicopter for the AAF forces. Surplus helicopters quickly found themselves pressed into use by Civilians, Poseidon and Police alike, not due to their multi-role nature but due to the fact every Hellcat came fitted with a powerful thermal imaging camera making them great for recon purposes.
