jward Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 I'm building a Royal Australian Navy S-70B Seahawk (1/48) on commission and was wondering if anyone makes aftermarket accessories that would (fairly) accurately represent the forward FLIR attachment. I'm not finding anything in my searches . . . I know this is a derivative of the SH-60F but I've not found any kit or aftermarket company that allows you to build the forward mounted radar / FLIR. Any help or comments would be appreciated. Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trojan Thunder Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 There was a full RAN S-70B-9 conversion set released in 1/48 by Hawkeye Models Australia Not sure of its availability at the moment but you could drop Pete @Hawkeye an email to ask. Email address is on the Order Form page. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
a4s4eva Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Good luck with the build. It's a bit a hellish journey depending on how accurate you want it. I'e not seen a post 1405 S-702 built (project Sea 1405 added the FLIR and a whole lot of other lumps and bumps to the S-70B2) . I don't actually know if anyone ever did a conversion, and if they did it's rare. I think you'll be scratch building a bit My pre 1405 build log is here, the finished build here My walkaround is here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
