Hobby Boss 1:72 UH-34D Choctaw Scale Model

The Sikorsky UH-34D Choctaw is a notable rotorcraft from the 1950s, later unified under the H-34 designation in 1962. Equipped with the Wright R-1820-84 radial engine, the airframe could be configured to transport a squad of 12 to 16 troops or fitted as a MedEvac for eight stretchers.

The Hobby Boss 1:72 kit aims to replicate the Choctaw's external form with well defined panels and parts suitable for painting and finishing. It makes a solid choice for historical model collections and museum style display cases.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1:72
  • Material: PS plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
The kit reproduces key external features and panel lines for a faithful scale representation, though fine detail may be enhanced with aftermarket parts.
Prepare plastic glue, fine brushes, and paint matched to reference schemes; a matt varnish or clear coat helps protect decals and paintwork.
Take care aligning rotor components and tail fittings to avoid stress on joints; dry fit parts before cementing to ensure correct placement.
