The UH100 Black Hawk Stealth

[tiking]

First of all, I must say that the Italeri, UH-60/MH-60 BLACK HAWK 'night raid' 1/48 scale kit, sucked big time. Maybe it was my bad luck but the fittings has one of the worst fittings I have ever experienced. Not only that, but the instructions was so bad.

Thank goodness, I was not trying to duplicate any particular prototyp model, which would have been a disaster. At the end, things were so misaligned that I just had to improvised, to hide certain areas. It helped, but only to an extend. So forgive me, if certain areas do not look that they have a perfect fitting. But, that was the best I could do. The engines rotate, for take off and flight mode.

Anyways, here is kit-bashed, modified, with a little scratch building involved, which resulted in this 'UH100 Black Hawk Stealth design. Hope you like the results, regardless of the difficulties I have had trying to put this build together.

I am interested where you will take this next, Charles. I have always wondered what a joint venture between Bell Helicopters and Sikorsky would look like.

Well, after watching SCI-FI films such as Star Wars, etc, would you wanna to explore that theory? HAHA!!! It's a sci-fi concept. But I have seen a tail wing just like that on a more recent black hawk helicopter. The new design isn't all though.
