BBI Helo question

Did the BBI Pavehawk have a refueling probe?? Or did they just change the paint? I haven't seen one yet.

It's too bad, too - could've been a great piece.

Im not sure, but does the coast guard use pave hawks, or black hawks, or variants of them, im thinking of making a custom USCG heli, and thinking of using the pavehawk

The USCG flies the HH-60J. This airframe has more in common with the Navys SH-60B than the UH/MH-60 airframes used by the Army and Airforce. Be prepared for MAJOR modifications converting the bbi Blackhawk into a CG Jayhawk.
