NEW Academy 1/48 HUGHES 500D Police Helicopter with Police Motorcycle

Description

NEW Academy 1/48 HUGHES 500D Police Helicopter with Police Motorcycle
This is a 1/48 Plastic Hughes 500D Police Helicopter from Academy Plastics. It's for ages 10 and up. One of the nimblest helicopters in service today is the Hughes Model 500. This machine is a development of the U.S. Army's OH-6A Cayuse which proved so valuable as an observation and attack helicopter in the Vietnam war. The Model 500 is modified with a "T" type tail and a five-blade rotor for more quiet operation. The spritely defender can be adapted to handle almost any task.
Features include:
Plastic pieces attached to sprues and molded in white and clear
The surface of the helicopter is decorated with fully engraved pane lines and rivet detail
Highly detailed cockpit interior includes decal gauges and controls
Two life-like pilot figurines are included
Rotor assembly delivers heartily in the realism department
Helicopter cockpit is covered with clear plastic that allows close inspection of the interior
As an added bonus a highly detailed police motorcycle and an extra officer are included for the ultimate in diorama authenticity
Detailed pictorial instructions guide you through assembly
Please check the photos provided (parts details are from another kit promotion – this kit is NEW and SEALED) and let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for stopping by!
