The MH-60L Black Hawk is an advanced variant of the UH-60 helicopter, specially adapted for missions of the United States Army Special Forces. Helicopters of this type have gained fame during numerous significant military operations, including those in Somalia in 1993, as well as later actions in Iraq and Afghanistan. They serve as assault, transport, and support aircraft, excelling in both combat and humanitarian operations due to their versatility.

The Eduard 491517 set includes carefully designed, laser-cut photo-etched parts such as: colored pilot instrument panels, realistic cockpit side panels, electronics details, seatbelts, switches, and various small accessories, all allowing for faithful reproduction of the helicopter’s interior. The precision of these parts goes far beyond what is possible with the standard plastic elements included in the base model. With this set, you can recreate even the most advanced cockpit sections, including avionics and mechanical details, to match the actual US Army MH-60L helicopter used by Special Operations Forces.

This product is intended for intermediate and advanced modelers—the assembly of photo-etched components requires high precision and skill in bending and fitting small parts (difficulty level 4/5). The set will elevate a standard plastic kit to a whole new level of realism.

We recommend the Eduard 491517 MH-60L ICM 1/48 set to all enthusiasts of modern military aviation and collectors of US Army helicopter models, who value the highest level of real-life cockpit detail reproduction.
