ICM UH-60A Black Hawk with ESSS & Skis - 1:48 Scale Model Kit

Build a detailed 1:48 scale model of the UH-60A Black Hawk configured with an External Stores Support System and ski landing gear.

The UH-60 Black Hawk became a mainstay of US Army aviation and has been operated by armed forces around the world. The prototype first flew in 1974, with the helicopter entering US Army service in 1979. Its combination of versatility, durability and ability to operate in demanding conditions has made it one of the world's best-known military helicopters.

This ICM kit represents a specialised UH-60A configuration featuring ESSS pylons, auxiliary fuel tanks and ski landing gear. The ESSS system allows the helicopter to carry external fuel tanks for extended-range operations, while the ski landing gear was developed to improve operation on deep snow and soft or swampy terrain.

The model includes a detailed cockpit and troop compartment, with options allowing you to customise the interior and the external configuration.
