Many a time I have fallen asleep in my pit, to the lilting song of the damn thing beating the air into submission as the deck repels the heathen contraption after the chains were released.

 

It's one of those kits, I will get it and do whatever is required to make it like one we had on board. Maverick with the blue stripes and all. looking forward to it .

Is it so difficult to take good pictures?

This is now popping up in stock in the UK: https://www.emodels.co.uk/kitty-hawk-model-1-48-kaman-sh-2g-super-seasprite-80126.html

 

My understanding is that Kitty Hawk's helicopters are usually pretty on the money, in which case it looks like I'll be adding the Polish Navy version to the build queue ASAP.

Ronin Graphics have also announced a decal set for Royal Australian Navy and Royal New Zealand Navy:

 

 

Quite a lot of work to turn this kit into an SH-2G(A) or SH-2G(I).

 

It's enough work to make an accurate SH-2G(NZ), which comes as a marking option in the box.

Hi all,

 

Does anyone know if the FS colours for the US Navy version in this kit are correct? Especially the white underside seems in correct with the FS35237 upper body seems wrong. Help appreciated.

 

Thanks

Hello peeps,

just acquired one of these Sea Sprites. Lovely box of bits. On looking at some of the  pictures it appears that you can depict the kit with blades folded, howeve there are no instructions in the box to suggest you can. Anyone out there managed folded? 

Cheers

Curly

Sorry, I haven't seen this before. Maybe it will be of any use to someone else.

 

Bilmodel made paints dedicated to Polish SH-2G, colors are exactly the same as for the US Navy. BTW he makes also a conversion to SH-2G - the kit lacks of the winch, and Polish version has additional GPS mounted on the tail.
