The Bell 430 stands as an American light, twin-engine helicopter developed and manufactured by Bell Helicopter. While formulating the Bell 230 based on the antecedent Bell 222 in 1991, Bell simultaneously initiated the preliminary design of an extended variant, later designated as the Bell 430. Introduced in 1992, the Bell 430 incorporated various enhancements over the 230, such as a new four-blade, composite main rotor, and improved optimisation of the Rolls-Royce 250-C40B engines, achieving 10% more power. Additional modifications included an elongated fuselage, allowing for extra passenger seating, and altered variants with either skids or a retractable wheeled undercarriage.
