Hi Guys,
If I may pique the collective wisdom of the FSM helicopter gang, I'm going to build a 1/35th MRC UH-1C Huey, which will have USN HA(L)-3 Seawolves markings (I may even invest in the Cobra Co UH-1B conversion set and back-date my Huey as it looks like a majority of Seawolves Hueys were B models). According to some pics I have (courtesy of
http://www.seawolf.org ) and Squadron's UH-1 Huey Gunship Walk-Around, Seawolf UH-1s carried either door mounted .50 cal M2HB machine guns, or crew-operated 7.62mm XM-93 miniguns (in addition to the usual XM-21 weapons combo or XM-158 rocket launchers). Anybody have any idea where I might a close facsimile of these weapons? The closest I have seen is the parts in Cobra Co's UH-1N Weapons set (not sure though if they fit the time-period). Also, I could use some good references for the various door gun mount systems. Thanks for any help.
Cheers,
Alby
