About product

1:72 Westland Lynx Mk.88 – a Revell kit

This is a plastic kit of a helicopter in 1:72 scale from the German firm Revell. The Mk.88 version is the naval shipborne form of the Westland Lynx as the Marineflieger used it under that designation. The model therefore fits into a collection of shipborne machines as well as among European Cold War vehicles.

The real subject

The Lynx was created in Britain as a multirole helicopter with remarkably good agility – in its land form it served the army, while in its naval form it took part in antisubmarine work and reconnaissance from the decks of frigates. The shipborne versions are recognizable by their wheeled landing gear, folding rotor blades and equipment for working over the sea. The machine became famous for its briskness and stayed in service with a number of countries for decades.

Building and painting tips

On helicopters in this scale the cockpit can be seen well, so finish it and close it up first. Mask the glazing and spray it together with the fuselage, so that the frames are the same shade as their surroundings. Leave the rotor blades loose until the finish is done – they are easily knocked. A gloss intermediate coat comes before the decals and a matte one after them, or the carrier film will show.

Who the model is for

  • collectors of naval aviation
  • anyone interested in European helicopters of the Cold War
  • modelers who want a machine with a striking silhouette
  • builders of collections in a consistent 1:72 scale

The helicopter is sold as a kit to be assembled and sprayed, without tools or shades.

FAQ

Above all by its wheeled landing gear, folding blades and equipment for working over the sea.

A helicopter in 1:72 is one of the friendlier subjects. Watch out mainly for the glazing and the rotor blades.

At the very end, once the finish is done. During the build they are the most vulnerable part of the model.
