Hello!
Being mainly an armor model builder, I'm hoping for some help with a few questions about helo's!
I watched "Black Hawk Down" (again, again, again) yesterday, and was thinking about either doing a "1993 Mog" dio, or maybe a "160th SOAR today" line-up of 2 or 3 helo's.
Any helo kits in 1/72nd scale that could end up looking like the "Little bird" and Black Hawk of the 1993 Mog incident??
I was think Italeri OH-6 Cayuse or....??
Thanks in advance,
Steen

Italeri did an AH-6A Night fox kit. This kit was also released in Japan by Tamiya. This kit comes with the t tail but will still require a lot of modification.
International Air Power Review Vol. 4 has an article on the 160th SOAR with lots of pictures of little birds.

Italeri AH-6A Night Fox Scout Helicopter #017. They also did a Vietnam era OH-6 Cayuse #028, but the AH-6A would be closer. I think they also did another updated variant, but I am not sure.
