To build a UH-60 Firehawk
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, February 2, 2004 5:48 AM
I'd like to build this guy sometime soon:

The problem is every model that I have seen at my local store has them with the "thingy" on the front, as in this one:

Do the models come with that pre attached, or is it a separate thing to attach.

Also, does anyone have an idea on how to build the water tank?

On the Academy/MRC helos in 1/35 the "thingy" (radar) is not preattached.
You'll have to do some working on the gear (wheels ans stuff). It's a nice challenge!

I'm hoping the smaller varients don't have the radar attached.

The radar dome is an add on on the 1/48 Academy/Minicraft kits of the H-60 series of helo's.
As far as the water tank and siphon hose assembly go? All I can say, is to try and find some better pics and get you some sheet styrene and styrene tubing and get after it!!
It really shouldn't be that hard, once you get the measurements and scale them to whatever scale you will be building the bird in.
