Very nice. This will look great and open up all sorts of possibilities and versions based on this one (HH-60H, MH-60R, USCG MH-60J, etc..).
The included decal options pics are not correct though. They are for another forthcoming 1/35 SH-60B kit, not the SH-60F.
Now they just need to get their long-awaited 1/35 MH-60L and HH-60G onto the street, quickly followed by these two Navy Hawks.

This brings back memories.... Eight years of working on them with over 2 years of that at sea. I will have to pick up one of these. There are some very pretty SH-60F's out there. Check out the HS-11 "Dragonslayers" (near to my heart) for thier color bird. It is a shame the site shows the "B" model color birds.

Nice. I really like the dragon face on the stabilator.

One of the decal options for the SH-60F Ocean Hawk has been released. It looks pretty nice.

Lots of great looking options. Glad they are including a Top Gun bird, didn't look good for Fightertown upscaling thier decal sheet.
