Academy continues its large sale H-60 series with a new 1/35 US Navy MH-60S coming out soon. It is supposed to be out in Nov. It looks like it will be pretty nice.
The new sprue with the Naval parts looks pretty good. It looks to have the folding rotors and rotor head, new IP and glare shield with extended part, new pilots doors, FLIR and surfboard parts, missile warning detectors, new internal aux fuel tank, extended step-fairings below the pilot's doors, and a bunch more parts I can't make out. It should be a good kit. I'll be getting one for sure.

It looks like this one will come w/a couple different decal options. It is looking better all the time.
Link to sprue shots, including new Naval sprue. It looks like the decals sheet has markings for 3 different helos.
