Quote

Some of you may already recognize the UH-12A Raven in our new profile photo.

The UH-12A was created when Hiller upgraded the engine and rotor blades of the previous UH-12. It was the UH-12A that was adopted into the armament of both the French and United States armies, and was also used by civilian commercial operators in several countries.

You can see it in 1/48 scale.

We will keep adding updates.
