1/48 MH-60L Black Hawk, US Special Forces Helicopter
ICM 1/48 MH-60L Black Hawk is a plastic kit of the American special operations helicopter of the 160th SOAR “Night Stalkers”, with 302 parts. Paints and glues needed for assembly are not included.
At the end of 1968, the US Army launched the UTTAS programme for a multi-role tactical transport helicopter with a three-person crew, a cabin for 11–15 soldiers, two engines and the ability to be carried inside cargo aircraft. In 1976 Sikorsky won, and its design was designated UH-60A Black Hawk (company designation S-70). It became the basis of a whole family of helicopters for transport, special operations, electronic warfare, naval, anti-submarine and medical evacuation roles. The MH-60L serves with the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR) “Night Stalkers”; it is fitted with weather radar and a FLIR sensor and can carry an air refuelling system.
The ICM kit contains 302 parts and measures 421 × 343 mm when built. The decals cover three 160th SOAR helicopters: 90-26290 (Tennessee, 2007), 93-26489 from exercise PANAMAX 2011 and 91-26360 (2012).
The dark special forces finish and the well-equipped fuselage make the model a striking counterpart to standard transport Black Hawks. Paints and glues needed for assembly are not included.
