The model is excellent and since the original model has a four-blade rotor and not five, I had to find the earliest reference to this model of the brand, and range. But thanks to Jose Luis, searching for rare models, I found it. Thanks friend.

The changes I have made have been on the skids, and tail pure antennas, wire cutters, beacons, rear detail the main rotor, the engine area with the CMK upgrade kit and the reconstruction and improvement of the internal model, all with Eduard photoetched and Evergeen.

To render the scene I attached to the aircraft carrier deck Juan Carlos I. fixing chains and tensioners thereof, made with plastic evergreen.
