Attack Squadron have sent us details of their latest release: Kit #72015 - a new full resin model of the K-MAX manned/unmanned helicopter.
"K-Max helicopter designed for transporting heavy loads up to 6000 lb hoisted under reinforced fuselage K-Max proved its value in civilian and military duty.
K-max is designed using the intermeshing rotor system. It use the whole power of the engine for the lift force, rotor torques tolerate each other and there is no need to use power consuming rudder propeller. Also, the arrangement of the rotors stabilizes helicopter the making it an ideal platform for construction work where stability is so important.
Being a very stable platform it is used currently for cargo delivery in Afghanistan by US Marine Corps. K-Max unmanned helicopters deliver cargo to remote posts of Marines. It is much more safe way of transport compared to truck convoys that are vulnerable to Taliban Ambushes and bomb traps.
Attack Squadron model kit
Our K-Max 1:72 scale resin kit is as usual designed in CAD 3D technology. Masters are printed with 3D printer and then carefully checked and corrected. Our technology makes model kit extremely accurate and perfect fit. Smart parts break down makes cutting out of casting blocks and assembly relatively easy.
Kit contains:
resin parts
vacuformed canopy
photo-etched fret
lead weight
decals
Undercarriage is reinforced with steel rod. Surface is completly covered with accurate raised rivet details. (Photo shows preproduction castings.)"
