Super Huey UH-IX (simply Super Huey on some platforms) is a helicopter combat flight simulation game published by Cosmi Corporation. Originally released for the Commodore 64 in 1985, it was ported to the Amiga, Apple II, Atari ST, Atari 8-bit computers, and MS-DOS. Atari Corporation published an Atari 7800 version in 1989.
Super Huey UH-IX is a game in which a flight simulator involves combat, as well as rescue and exploration missions.
M. Evan Brooks reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "For those desiring an 8-bit helicopter flight simulator, Super Huey and its sequels fill the bill. For those desiring excitement as well, it would pay dividends to look elsewhere."[1] Antic described Super Huey as a "true simulation" like Flight Simulator II, with excellent graphics.[2]
