Here is an exclusive and quite unique modification to the Hasegawa
1/72 Mi-24 Hind helicopter kit. This set provides the
parts for the new sensors and tools for the Nuclear, Biological,
Chemical (NBC) reconnaissance helicopter variant that was first
observed after the 1986 Chernobyl accident.
The instructions walk you through the deletion of the undernose
gun and sensors, the deletion of the underwing armament, and the
installation of the new parts. These include:
- Air Conditioning Intake
- Equipment Pod
- Excavators (2)
- Hydraulic Bays (2)
- Starboard Door
- Vacuformed Bubble Observer Window for new Starboard Door
- Chaff Dispenser
This set will take the nice out-of-the-box Hasegawa Hind kit and
transform it into the more ominous 'Weapons of Mass Destruction'
reconnaissance aircraft.
This set is produced for Linden Hill by Heliborne in Moscow.
Definitely recommended.
My sincere thanks to Linden
Hill Imports for this review sample!
