The Italeri 1065 - 1/72 MH-53E Sea Dragon kit reproduces the distinctive mine clearance helicopter in manageable scale. It highlights structural form and service equipment for a convincing model once assembled and painted.
As an offshoot of the CH-53 family, the MH-53E gained a three-engine arrangement and specialist fittings to handle mine countermeasure equipment. It played a key part in keeping sea lanes clear during its service life.
Careful fit work and attentive finishing will make this model stand out. The 1/72 size offers a compromise between shelf space and visible detail, so take time on seams and panel lines for the best outcome.
