AirStrike 700 Helicopter with Photo etch |
|
|
| Not the most attractive looking helicopter the Sikorsky S-55, better known in the US as the HO4S, has a distinctive "tadpole" shape that will make a great little addition to your 50's carrier or airfield diorama. They come packaged 5 to a set with photo etch details included. There was little flash and only a small casting gate on the nose to sand off, my sample came nicely molded with very little touch up needed. | click to enlarge

| This helo comes with photo etched rotors wheels, and tail stabilizers. The wheel centers are even visible due to the relief etching on the parts. | |
|
| Basic instructions are provided to show how the parts fit. They could benefit from having exact locations for the etched parts to attach to. A simple elevation view of the Helicopter would be a big plus. | |
|
| White Ensign has a very complete line of aircraft in their 1/700 Scale airstrike line that should allow you to model any carrier at any time period desired. Check out the complete list on their website. | |
