About product

The Westland Sea King HAS.5 accessory set in 1:48 scale

A bundle of accessories from the Czech maker Eduard in 1:48 scale. It is not a kit of the helicopter but a collection of sets that are also sold separately and that together cover the detailing of a model of the Sea King in the HAS.5 version. The specific composition of the package is given by the manufacturer on the box.

The real subject

The Westland Sea King came about as a license-built version of the American Sikorsky S-61, which the British modified markedly and fitted with Rolls-Royce Gnome turbines. The HAS.5 version was a later anti-submarine variant of the Royal Navy with more modern search and sonar equipment and with a roomier station for the operators. The machine had a boat hull, folding main rotor blades and a folding tail section, so that it would fit into a hangar on a ship. Sea Kings served the Royal Navy for long decades and took part, among other things, in the fighting over the Falklands, where they carried out anti-submarine, transport and rescue duties.

What to watch out for

  • Find out which kit the bundle is cut for, because the Sea King in 1:48 is on the market from several brands.
  • Bend the photo-etched parts with a tool, not with your fingers, or the edges will ripple.
  • Glue the metal parts with cyanoacrylate glue and degrease the surfaces beforehand.
  • Finish and paint the details of the interior before you close the fuselage.

Who the set is for

The set is for modelers with experience of photo-etched accessories who want an elaborate interior and exterior detail alike on a model of the helicopter. The extent of the work matches a longer build, not a quick weekend project.

FAQ

It is not. You have to buy the Sea King kit separately, and this set contains only accessories.

The set is intended for the HAS.5 version. A separate variant comes out for the HAS.1, because the machines differ in their equipment.

The number of parts is given on the box of the bundle and in the manufacturer's instructions.

A bender or two blades for bending the photo-etching, tweezers, cyanoacrylate glue and patience.
