Huey UH-1F
Posted by philp on Thursday, December 29, 2005 1:20 AM
Got the Italeri kit in 72nd for Christmas and now need a little help.  I want to make one of the 20th SOS birds from Vietnam but needs to be armed with a couple of rocket pods and miniguns inside the cabin.  Seen Cobra Company has a weapons set but looks like the mounted system which won't work for me.  I have a couple miniguns from the CH-53 kit but would still need to build the mount, etc.  Any other ideas?

May wish to acquired the Italeri 1/72nd scale UH-1B, C and maybe N model kits and take the weapons from them. As a note, once armed it becomes a P model

Thanks John,
Saw the Squadron Walk Around book that has some great pics.  Think I have the B in my stash.

Not a problem, Philip, don't remember what Italeri includes in their 1/72nd N model kit, worth checking out though and that Squadron book is great as a reference
