seanm135 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 hey guys - what are my options for H-60 variants in 1/48 scale? Preferably a HH/MH variant with fuel probe, FLIR, etc. Let me know, thanks as always!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
seanm135 Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 alright, did a little more research... two front runners right now are the Italeri MH-60K or the SH-60B. Leaning towards the MH-60K but I do like the blade fold option on the SH... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeejeeZ Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Hi Sean, I must say I am by no means a specialist on the Black/ Pave/ Ocean/ Sea Hawk helicopters, but I have built both 1:48 Italeri and Minicraft Black Hawks and Pave Hawks. All builds went ok, but the detail on the Italeri imho is better. I remember the troop seats on the Minicraft kit were completely wrong: four straight down legs on every seat, looked like a '50s kitchen interior. On the other hand: I didn't like the Italeri frontal glazing, which has quite an unusual parts break up. Somehow I cannot help thinking that this subject must have been on the formum before, with so many '60 connaisseurs here. Have you tried a forum search? HTH, Gertjan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm leaning toward an Italeri kit... And yes, I broke the all-forum golden rule of posting before searching... once I posted I did some more research. Thanks again!

jefropas Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Hopefully the new series of Blackhawk derivative models will be coming soon.... Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
