H-3, CH-3, HH-3 Helicopter in 1/48 Scale
Posted by ipmsfl on Monday, September 4, 2006 9:38 AM

Why isn’t there a 1/48 scale kit of the H-3, CH-3, HH-3 helicopter on the market? It was pretty heavily used by the US Air Force before, during and after Vietnam and even into Desert Storm as an MH-3 variant by the Air Force Special Operations forces.

Any supporters out there?

Manufacturers: We could sure use this kit. How about it?

Don't EEEEEVVVVVVEEEENNNNN get me started!  Needless to say, I too believe that this is an overlooked bird in the modeling world and it deserves better representation. 

Whattaya say Trumpeter, Academy, ROG???  Hell, you could even do a series:

HH-3E

CH-3E

HH-3F (USCG and Italian)
