Hasegawa UH-60J Rescue Hawk Chitose Special Kit Overview

The Hasegawa 1/72 UH-60J (SP) Rescue Hawk Chitose Special is a detailed scale kit aimed at aviation modellers. The components reproduce the helicopters external features to create a compact, accurate representation at 1/72 scale.

Service Role and Design Context

The UH-60J is a Black Hawk variant adapted for search and rescue with mission-specific fittings and avionics in service. The model concentrates on exterior fidelity to those service adaptations rather than internal mechanics.

Assembly Experience and Finishing Notes

Modellers should prepare for careful assembly of small parts and precise painting to bring out panel lines and equipment. Use of a primer, fine brushes or an airbrush will improve the final presentation.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
  • Part Count: Detailed components for realism

Presentation and Curatorial Use

When finished, the UH-60J makes a compact display model suitable for cabinets or thematic groupings. It pairs well with other modern military helicopters and rescue subject matter.

Is this kit suitable for a first time builder?

This kit is manageable for someone new to modelling who is willing to take a steady approach, but beginners should expect to learn seam treatment and masking as part of the build.

What adhesives are recommended for assembly?

Use plastic cement or cyanoacrylate adhesives depending on the joint. Plastic cement gives a welded bond for major seams while CA is useful for small or delicate parts.

How can I protect the finished paintwork?

Apply a clear coat such as gloss for decal application, then a satin or matt varnish to seal and protect the finish. Handle the model with clean hands or gloves to avoid oils on the paint.
