mhvink Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 My nephew just graduated from the Naval Academy and the resulting flight school and just got his assignment as an aviator in the MH-60R. I know that Academy has a MH-60S, but does anyone have a 60R kit or conversion parts for one? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
achterkirch Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 I believe Olimp has a conversion for the 1/72 hobby boss kit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hawkwrench Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 What size model are you wanting to build? You mentioned the Academy MH-60S, so i assume you're talking about the 1/35th scale. I don't know of a MH-60R conversion kit, but a modeler here named HeavyArty did a Coast Guard MH-60 awhile back and they are similar so he can probably help you.

mhvink Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 Thanks Tim, Yeah, I was looking towards a 1/35 scale bird. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Here is my 1/35 MH-60J build, which is basically the same as a USN MH-60R. It takes a bit of scratch work, but can come out looking awesome.
