1/72 revell sea king HAR3


Recommended Posts

Hi

here is my latest model. its the revell sea king mk41 converted to HAR3. Great kit went together really well. all the parts are in the kit to make it a HAR3A. Used airwaves etching for aerials and bits, scratchbuilt the camera pod on the side of the fuselage.

all hand painted. Masked the rear blades and the black area on the fuselage. Used the xtradecal anniversary set for the main decals and the airfix decals for the stencils

Hi Graeme,

At risk of sounding like a complete pedant, you've made a Mk3 not a 3a, as Noisygriff has said. The obvious external differences between the two variants are that the 3a has a slightly different HF aerial on the port side, different V/UHF blade aerial fit and is operated by 22 Sqn; 202 only operates the Mk3. Yellow Sea Kings also have two pairs of white 'dracula fangs' homer aerials under the chin, one longer pair (as on yours) for VHF and another shorter pair for UHF, which you could probably add without much difficulty. All that aside, good effort on the (Mk3) conversion!

PS Flown this one a few times in a 'previous life'!!
