E-2C Hawkeye 1/72 Scale Summary

The Hasegawa 02164 kit portrays the E-2C Hawkeye from the VAW-115 Liberty Bell squadron, focusing on the aircrafts surveillance role and signature radar dome. The 1/72 scale balances detail and footprint for display or modelling projects.

Construction Notes and Detailing

Components show defined panel lines and a cockpit layout intended to look convincing under paint. The rotating radar dome is modelled to allow a degree of movement for display, and the instruction sheet guides builders through the main assembly stages. Careful finishing will reveal the kit's finer details.

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly Type: Requires assembly and painting
  • Includes Decals: Yes
  • Radar Dome: Rotating feature

Will the kit need putty or filler?

Minor seam gaps may appear on some joins; a small amount of modelling putty and sanding will help achieve a smooth finish before painting.

Are clear parts supplied for the windows?

Yes, the kit includes clear parts for the cockpit and windows; handle them carefully to avoid scratches and use a safe solvent for masking and gluing.

How accurate are the decals?

The decals reproduce VAW-115 markings and stencils at 1/72 scale; thin them with decal setting solutions for best adhesion on curved surfaces.

Is weathering recommended?

Light weathering and panel shading can add depth to the finished model, but keep it subtle to match the operational look of the E-2C.
