SH-60 Seahawk
Posted by paulnchamp on Tuesday, September 28, 2004 1:38 PM
I don't normally build a lot of helos but I thought I'd post a couple of pics of my most recent one. It's the Hasegawa 1/72 scale kit - hope you like it.

Nice looking Bravo. I'm working on the Italeri 1/48 SH-60B model right now with the HSL-47 Sabrehawks decals. About halfway done. Good work!

Good looking Seahawk there. I have a plan forming to possible convert an Academy UH-60L into a SH-60 Seahawk one day. Hope mine comes out looking as good as yours does.

HeavyArty: Just a thought, but it would probably be easier to update the Italeri SH-60B with AM than convert the UH-60. Will require "back dating" (no HIRSS), relocating the rear tail wheel and beefing it up, cabin doors are different...just to name a few.

I know, but I want to do it in 1/35 scale, hence the Academy UH-60L as a starter. I have seen at least one SH-60 with the HIRSS though, may be a fluke though.

That's not an SH-60B Arty, it's an HH-60H.

HeavyArty,
I did a conversion in 1/35 to a Seahawk B. Huge amount of work. Have a look at www.aberdeenmodeller.plus.com, click on 'gallery' and browse.

Collin,
Don't see your Seahawk there. I would like to see it, is it anywhere else? Any other photos?

The only picture I saw of the Seahawk was a full table shot taken at the 2003 Scottish Nationals at Perth.
I would be interested in seeing some pics of it myself and possibly an article of sorts on the conversion.
