MisterCraft Plastic Model Kit
UH-60A Black Hawk (1/72) F-22
This 1/72 scale UH-60A Black Hawk from MisterCraft represents the well known twin engine utility helicopter that entered service with the United States Army in the late 1970s. Designed to replace the UH-1, the Black Hawk introduced improved performance, survivability and payload capability.
The model captures the distinctive angular fuselage, four blade main rotor and tail rotor arrangement that define the UH-60 series. Its proportions and surface detail provide a solid basis for recreating a frontline transport helicopter used in a wide range of operations. The kit is supplied unpainted and includes assembly instructions to guide the build.

History
The Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk first flew in 1974 and entered service in 1979. It was developed to provide a more capable and durable replacement for the Huey, with greater lift capacity and improved battlefield survivability.
Since its introduction, the UH-60A and later variants have been deployed worldwide in transport, medical evacuation and special operations roles, becoming one of the most widely used military helicopters of the modern era.
