Academy MH 60 S Helicopter 1/35 scale/


Recommended Posts

The MH-60S does not use external fuel tanks.  That is why it has an internal tank.  The naval version of external fuel tank for other Sea Hawks (HH-60F, HH-60R, SH-60B, etc.) has a more blunt nose and an inverted V-shaped fin setup on the rear.

It is the same version used on the USCG MH-60J.

Gino,

Thanks so much for the photos of the tanks it helps a lot. Back to the drawing board i guess. In your opinion would it be wrong to post the supplied tanks from the kit near the helo diorama?. Who uses those tanks then?

They are standard US Army Black Hawk fuel tanks. A carry over from the initial boxing(s) of the kit.
