UH-1E Questions

[Doom3r]

Hi guys,

 

Recently picked up 1/48 Hobby Boss UH-1"C". Originally though about changing the rotor blades, adding weapons and maybe add interior but then realized that I already have UH-1C/M in every major scale except 1/24 (c'mon Revell, rerelease that model!) but do not have E in any scale. Since one of the options is E model I am wondering if I could pull it off with scratch building what is missing from proper E model.

So here my questions:

1) Does anyone have any good pictures of the E model's hoist system?

2) Is there anything else that is visually different from the "B" model (which is what in the box)? 

3) Can E model carry weapons (other that a marine with the machine gun in the door) and if "yes" are there any good pictures of such configuration.

 

PS: The pictures of the "QL 404" I was able to find clearly show the hoist system. I guess I can ask "How Hobby Boss would not notice that?" but this is not my first model of that company so I know the quality of their "research".

Lot of pictures are dead on that thread. While it answered a good potion of the questions still would love to have a good pictures of the hoist system

My personal favorite - the TAT-102 turret, also used in very early AH-1G's
