It’s not the twin engine CH-53A, D or G. This E is the latest three engine, 7-blade chopper serving the Marines in Iraq and Afghanistan, right now! A magnificent 24 inches from the tip of its main rotor blades to the tip of its tail, it’s size and unbelievable attention to the smallest detail makes this Super Sea Stallion a must have in any helicopter collection. MRC and Academy pulled out all the stops to give modelers everything imaginable: detailed cockpit of course, with finely engraved instruments on the cockpit panels; pilot’s windows, cabin and cargo doors that can be assembled open or closed; and deep inside the cabin you’ll see MRC’s exclusive second skin interior walls that highlight every aspect of the real machine; the ribs; the padding; the troop seats; and the firepower of two .50 caliber machine guns. This CH-53E has precise main rotor grips, lag dampers and swash plate, all flawlessly molded. The rear loading ramp can be positioned either closed, or leave it open for a magnificent interior view, and the entire tail section can be built opened or closed as well! The main rotor blades can be assembled two ways: folded for aircraft carrier on-deck storage, or extended for flight. As you’d expect, a variety of authentic decal markings and current as well as retro paint schemes are included on this CH 53E plastic model.
