Dragon's 1/144 Blackhawk Kits

I had a glance at those helos on DML's site.
Looking at the sprues it seemed to me that the "wing on the tail fin" is not correct, since it looks like the on used on standard UH-60L.
The ones on MH-60L are rectangular.

Some pics:

This Pavehawk has the same tail section as a MH-60L

And this is a "standard" Blackhawk

LOL The "wing on the tail fin" is pronounced "Stabilator" Anyway your right, MH type birds generally have the rectangular Stab which folds vertically on either side of the tail pylon while UH type birds have the typical Blackhawk Stab which doesnt fold. The purpose of the fold is to allow for quick prep for Air/Sea transport when the tail pylon gets folded. An MH type Stab can just fold up when folding the pylon, but an UH Stab must be removed to fold the pylon. Thus endeth todays lesson for Blackhawk 101 what every modeller really doesnt need to know : )

Thanks, Mogwa!
This proves my lack in English technical terms!

BTW I checked DML's site and found out that also their 1/144 Pavehawks have the wrong stabilator and both helos (Blackhawk and Pavehawk) have no chaff dispensers!

All of the Dragon kits are in this month's Squadron flyer, page 3 lower left corner. The fuselages are about 3.5 inches long. Not very big, but well detailed. Just the stabilator problems need to be addressed.
