Hobby Boss 87215 American UH-34A Choctaw Scale Helicopter Kit  [HB-87215]

Service background of the Sikorsky UH-34A

The Sikorsky H-34 Choctaw served prominently in naval and transport roles, originally intended for the US Navy in anti-submarine warfare (ASW) duties. Derived from the Sikorsky UH-19 Chickasaw, it is powered by a single Wright R-1820-84 radial engine and could carry 12 to 16 troops or be fitted for medical evacuation with space for eight stretchers.

Build detail and modelling scope

The Hobby Boss 1:72 scale example replicates the American UH-34A Choctaw with close attention to fuselage shape and deck fittings. The parts layout and detail level suit modellers who enjoy precision assembly and period accuracy.

Ideal for shelves and themed displays

With its authentic silhouette, this kit makes a convincing display piece and pairs well with other military aircraft in a Cold War vignette. Careful painting and weathering will highlight the model's detail.
