MH-60M (not DAP) JSOC, any build or conversion recs for 1/35 or 1/48??


Recommended Posts

MH-60M 'Mike' medium assault (not DAP) JSOC, any build or conversion recs for 1/35 or 1/48??

At last check, JSOC uses 50% of its helos in the MH-60M "medium assault" configuration and is their essential "workhorse"

Surely there is some avenue to reproduce this workhorse in either 1/35 aor 1/48 scale, I realize that Cobra Company had a MH-60M upgrade, 

It may never reappear unfortunately...any ideas, thought, recommendations?  

What is the closest? the UL airframe was the closest to the one MH-60M uses, not the K or L model

Can something be done with the UH-60 / MH-60 Black Hawk 1/48 kit ?

Does anyone have a 1/48 scale MH-60M Conversion kit?

If so, this could be an avenue for the 1/35 as well...if creative

Unfortunately, without a lot of scratch work, you can't really get a UH/MH-60M model in any scale.  It is quite a bit different from a standard L model.

 

I do have the 1/35 Cobra Company UH-60M Conversion set, MH-60M Conversion set, and Upturned Exhaust System (UES) set that I may be willing to sell.   You need all three to make an MH-60M model.  Let me know if you are interested.

I read on I think FB where someone took the CC MH-60M set and married it up with the KH kit.

Didn't look too bad except some of the detail parts don't look quite right.

Gino, I have been reading your work for years. Great review of the MH-60M years ago for Cobra Co. Yes I would be interested. I have been working on the MH-6M and have not committed as yet to the H-60 kit to start with. I read adrake83 build but there may be more direct options now. Let me know what kit is best base, I assume the UH-60M conv kit gives you now a core 60Mike frame to work with, then MH-60M conv finishes off the significant specific of the JSOC "Medium Assault". Does the set have the 60M instrument panel? Yes I'd be interested

How about Gentlemen, how are you? I see that you are looking for a conversion for the MH-60M SOAR, in Xtream Modelers Studio the interior and exterior set is next to go on sale, which will include up to the last piece necessary to be able to make that version, you can check the exterior pieces on the xtream modelers studio en face page

It has Xtream Modelers Studio in 1/48, it brings all the interior and exterior fully detailed including the new main rotor blades for the MH-60M and it is for the Italeri, Academy, Revell or Minicraft kits in 1/48
