I think it's a great little Sea Knight, I pulled out the Testors/Fujimi kit just comparison and found that the new Hobby Boss is much better, especially with it’s interior. It’s a shame that the window wipers were molded on. As for AM kit, well I wouldn’t waste time or money in the interior as you’ll never see it, but it would be nice to see an exterior set to replace the inlet screen and the armor plating along the Pilot side of the fuselage. It’ll be interesting to see if Hobby Boss has their fuselage halves specific to their CH-46E/F version. Great review….

The Hobby Boss H-46 kits are slightly re-organised copies of the Hobbycraft Labrador / H-46 kit.
