1/700 3D Printed MCH -53E

[Bill Oreto]

Over at Tom’s Modelworks one will find in 1/700 the most overlooked workhorse of the USN Gator Navy the MCH -53E. 3D printed in one piece in gray resin. The MCH-53E used in both mine clearing and hauling bulk cargo. Fuselage detail is excellent for scale. A bit of challenge in removing it from its print chassis but well worth it. Only 3 locations that extra caution must exercised in removing attachment points. Forward refueling boom, nose landing gear and forward probe. Otherwise most attachment are beneath the aircraft. What small attachment stubs left can be scrapped off with finger nail or #11 blade. The helo is offered in both folded tail (another excellent feature) and extend tail with loading ramp. Tom includes a set of White Ensign rotors both folded and extended. Highly recommended purchase for your 1/700 USN Gator flight decks.
