                        The hasegawa Seahawk, F-18 series and new tool F-4 series are best.
                        Fujimi's A-6 series is more finely detailed than the hasegawa but they don't do the EA-6B (hasegawa's EA-6B is very nice. I have Fujimi's Seaking and Hawkeye but don't know other kits for comparison. Fujimi's F-4 series are nicely detailed but not as good as hasegawa's and the fit of the Fujimi F-4's is horrible.

                        Check out Revell Germany's Sea King range, excellent kits with recessed panel lines. At present they cover the German version plus Englands Mk6 & AEW version including the radome. These will a very good base for your proposed American version.

                        SH-60
                        Check out hasegawa series in 72. It should be easy to convert a sh60b in 6h60h. the problem will be decals, you will have to buy italeri kit as well, which has positive(non recesses) panel lines
