Since I did not find a good 3-view (or better) of the HH-52, I went for its bigger brother instead. Here some pictures of the test build. As expected, some issues with the nose to resolve and then some recolors.

Don't know about (read aboot) the Canadian ones. I know the Belgian ones have been phased out and replaced.

Cool! Australia operated the Westland Mk.50, retiring the type in 2011.
Though British built, early service carried colours closer to US Navy. Also saw some interesting anniversary markings. Lots of repaint potential with this one!

You beat me to it, StormE


In the original Top Gun had a Sea King in it too. Plucking Maverick from the sea.
Another Sea King would be the one that took Jack Ryan out to the USS Dallas in the Hunt for the Red October.


Many More in TV and Movies to list.


Bruno, Great looking model BUT you need to work on your landings (Last Pic)

You may very well be right on that one Stefan!

And Bruno, a single example each of both the Sikorsky and Westland versions should be enough to fire up the recolourists.
