2007 Bristolio tipas 192 Belvederis yra britų dviejų variklių, tandeminio rotoriaus karinis sraigtasparnis, kurį pastatė "Bristol Aircraft Company". Jį sukūrė Raoul Hafner įvairiems transporto vaidmenims, įskaitant karių gabenimą, tiekimo mažinimą ir aukų evakuaciją. Ją 1961–1969 m. valdė Karališkosios oro pajėgos (RAF). "Belvedere" buvo vienintelis Didžiosios Britanijos tandeminis rotorinis sraigtasparnis, pradėtas gaminti, ir vienas iš nedaugelio, kurio nepastatė Piasecki ar Boeing.
