1/48 Airfix HMA.8 Lynx to Mk.23 conversion

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I've pulled my 1/48 Airfix HMA.8 and Alleycat HAS.2 conversion off the shelf, along with some decals for one of the Argentinian Mk.23s deployed to the Falklands. As far I can tell a Mk.23 is essentially an HMA.2 on the outside. It's the inside I'm struggling to find references for, especially the seat configuration in the rear, and any differences to the IP. Has anybody got any information or photos to shed any light on this?

 

Many thanks for any help,

Gareth

The two in the Falklands were 0734 /3-H-141 and 0735 / 3-H-142. (In fact the only two they had)

In the only photo I can find of them it looks like they have the normal sideways facing seats rather than the inflatable one but it is a magazine photo of poor quality in black and white so I can't be certain.

Sorry not exactly a great help!
