the romand came to doverAfter yesterday we thought you'd like to see something... well a bit less grey. So we're going to let one of our Big Cats out of the bag. The Puma HC1 comprises approximately 1/3 of the Royal Air Forces Helicopter lift capability. The type has been in service since 1971 but has always maintained its capability with a constant programme of avionics and engine updates. The 33 aircraft are currently split between 2 squadrons but are deployed around the world in various support and combat roles.
This is the 3rd incarnation of the model. I've managed to get all the detail I wanted into a lower poly count. The model was scaled and built up from an old 1/32 Airfix AS330L model kit paint sheet and then adapted to the RAF specs. Its current configuration, sensors and flare packs are as close to the latest spec that I can safely make without going overboard and making the model ridiculously "over polyed".
