Italeri: 1/72 MH-53E Sea Dragon – Model Kit

This large mine-sweeping helicopter is in service with various special units of the US Navy and the Japanese self-defense forces. The Sea Dragon is a three-engine version of the twin-engine CH-53. Thanks to the outstanding power of its engines, this helicopter can tow a special hydrofoil which is dropped into the sea to detect mines. This vastly reduces the time, expense, and danger associated with sweeping sea mines—a task previously reserved for extremely specialized ships.

• Scale: 1:72
