yes I' gonna go ahead and see what I can do with this interesting, off scaled PTE ARH.
what do you guys think?
Mod list to include..
-more accurate landing Gear ( Although some Landing skids would be cool, as on some of the non-coastal platforms used.
- Side winch, for rescues.
- lower equipment bars
- More antenna
what do you guys think? do-able?
Still withering away from the A-10 Hunger Striker.

Looks much better, I passed on these when I first saw them. Now you have me giving it a second thought.

Not entirely sure what the deal is with this one, but the PTE blackhawk looks like it has an ok forward fuselage section but stubby rear section/tail. It's alot of plastic surgery but maybe cut the tail and fabricate a spacer to add some length to it

I forget the exact scale (1:20something), but it's designed to work with 1:18 figures.

I think that I could work with this.
If I could have a size comparison to go off of.
Rocket pods should not be a biggie either.

John Wayne : Mine was taller
