Purchased in 1964 in order to perform some evaluating trials between helicopters and airplanes. The two HKP 5A that were bought (Z-95 and Z-96) were used by the Artillery Flight School at Brandholmen in Nyköping, but came to be operated by the Army Flight Battalion at AF1 in Boden as well. The trials turned out negative for the helicopters as they were found too expensive and too small.
Written off in an accident: Training auto rotation, main rotor hit tail boom, crashed at Brandholmen, 1 km southeast of Nykoping
