It would appear that if you are building an older Mk2 version of the AGM-119, the fins would not be folded.  However, I don't have any photos showing that weapon on a Seahawk.  The newer Mk2 Mod7 has the folding wings and is the weapon used on all the birds in the above photos I believe.

OK.. Next question... Are the fins on the Penguin always folded on the ground? Is there some mechanism for deploying them in flight? I was planning on making my Seahawk a shelf sitter and I really didn't want to mess with cutting and folding the fins on the missile.

Excuse me.. Is that an Uzi?

You're welcome.  Please post your build when you get started.  I found those images using Google by searching "AGM-119" and "AGM-119 SH-60B"  You might want to try yourself as there may be more images you can use there.

Here are a few I found on the web. Sorry none are exactly head on.  Be sure to click them to get the large versions.  HTH

I have been on a Helicopter kick lately and I am currently working on a couple 1/48 Seahawks. Anyway. I have aquired an AGM-119 missile. I know the Seahawks used to be rated to carry these, and I don't think it is something many people show (probably because it was rarely done).

I have done a google image search and now know just enough to know the Penguin needs a funny looking hardpoint mounted. However, I can only find side views (small ones at that). Anyone know or have any pictures looking head-on at a Seahawk with the missile, or just the pylon mounted?
