jonwinn Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Hello- what company molds a decent Blackhawk for a Medevac helo? I did an Italeri as a Desert Storm unit that seemed nice. Any that include decals?-jon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cubs2jets Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Scalemates is your best friend. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/ Here are all the 1/72 scale Blackhawks https://www.scalemates.com/search.php?fkSECTION[]=All&q=1%2F72+Sikorsky+H-60+Black+Hawk C2j Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonwinn Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 Thanks. I read a few reviews and the Hobbyboss is missing some parts and the Hasegawa seems too basic. I guess I will go with Italeri again. Is the Night Raid kit the same plastic as the Desert Hawk kit? Looks it to me. Thanks- jon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hajo L. Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Yes, it is. There are some more parts in the NightRaid-version, IIRC. HAJO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonwinn Posted March 27, 2020 Author Share Posted March 27, 2020 Thanks, I just saw images of both kits' sprues and they have exactly the same parts. If the Night Raid has extras they must be loose in the box. The only difference I see is the decals. But even Scalemates said new parts, where?-jon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hajo L. Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 The NightRaid should have the Terrain Following/Avoidance Radar for the nose, the upswept pylons for the aux tanks, in-flight refueling probe, M60 guns and some smaller RWR-sensors. Ahmmm.... Just checked: I was talking about the "Night Hawk"-kit, which is this: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/italeri-190-mh-60k-night-hawk--128231 It has all the goodies mentioned above. With "NightRaid" you meant this kit: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/italeri-1328-uh-60-black-hawk--137951 So you are right, they are exactly the same. Sorry.

jonwinn Posted March 29, 2020 Author Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Thanks, bought Night Raid and is exact plastic as Desert Hawk.- jon Edited March 29, 2020 by jonwinn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Glynn Jacobs Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 It would be nice if SOMEONE would make an after-market set for the internal (and external) gear particular to these birds or its' s gonna take a LOT of scratch-building to get any of these kits up-to-speed!
