About product

The MH-53J engine in 1:72 scale from the Black Dog brand

The accessory relates to the engine area of the model and assumes that you are already building the helicopter from a plastic kit. Do not look for the helicopter itself in the package; the point of the set is to replace the simplified shape on the model with a more thoroughly shaped assembly in the place the viewer looks at first when the panels are open.

Pave Low and its role

The MH-53J was among the heaviest machines the US Air Force used for special operations. It came about by rebuilding an older rescue version and received a terrain-following radar, a night observation system and precise navigation so that it could fly low over the ground at night and in poor visibility. A fuselage with a retractable refueling probe and side pylons for auxiliary fuel tanks gave it a range other helicopters of the day did not have.

Building advice

Deal with the engine area right at the start, while the fuselage halves are still free and can be reached from every side. An interior in a darker shade with the edges lightly picked out looks more faithful than an evenly sprayed surface. Use soot and traces of leaking fluids sparingly, because exaggerated dirt around the exhausts quickly looks unconvincing.

Who to recommend the set to

  • builders of American special operations helicopters
  • modelers who want to present the model with the hardware exposed
  • anyone interested in the use of these machines in night operations
  • those who build in 1:72 scale and want to go deep

The kit itself and the paints have to be obtained separately.

FAQ

A heavy US Air Force helicopter for special operations, adapted for flight low over the ground at night.

While the fuselage halves are still free. Once they are glued, the engine area is hard to reach.

With the panels closed, little of it shows. It gives the most on a model presented open.
