 <!-- ''In the description, the first part should be about the history of and the creation and combat usage of the helicopter, as well as its key features. In the second part, tell the reader about the helicopter in the game.

-The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a rank {{Specs|rank}} Swedish utility helicopter {{Battle-rating}}. It was introduced in [[Update "Wind of Change"]].
+The '''Helikopter 2''' (HKP2) was the Swedish designation for the French [[SA 313B Alouette II|SA 313 Alouette II]]. The first SA 313 arrived in Sweden in 1957, for use as a civilian crop duster. The helicopter was quickly adopted into the armed forces, serving with the army, air force, and navy. In total, Sweden operated 29 HKP2 helicopters, including 10 licence-built by SAAB in Norrköping, which remained in service until 1988 when it was finally replaced in army service by the [[HKP9A|HKP9]].
