 Intruder those look great but I just can't see buying the set just for those. You're right somebody needs to put out a set of just flex chutes. You wouldn't be able to give me the finished outside dimensions of those would you? I suck at scratch building but might be able to swing those.

Cluster bombing from B-52s is very, very accurate. The bombs always hit the ground.

   I agree with Avus - Eduard ones are nice but there are only 2 pieces 6cm each - not much for the price of the whole armament set...

   Here is how they look

 

I wish somebody who is in PE business would release a set of those in bulk)))))))

(Eduard, are you folowing our threads at all?)

Yes, they do. Again in the UH-1C armament set. But I don't know if it's worth spending money on an expensive PE set to just get the chute.

 There for Academys 1/35 MH-60Ls mini guns sorry I wasn't clear to start. Does Eduard make them in 35th?

Are you talking about the flex chutes for the 30 cal or mini-guns. If so, have you considered Eduard. They make the flex chutes for the C model Huey in 1/48 scale. It is part of the armament PE kit. I have it and hopefully will be getting to use them in the next couple of weeks. Spent all night tonight building their fire extinguisher strap assembly. My eyes hurt but it does look great.

Good luck and hoped this helped.

 A couple questions about flex chutes. First does anybody besides Cobra Company make them? In either metal or rubber? The reason I ask is I contacted CC and they won't sell just the chutes. Second what are the width and highth of the chutes in case I have to try scatch building them.
