Italeri 2720S 1/48 Wessex UH.5 model outline

The Italeri 2720S captures the Wessex UH.5s distinct silhouette and the raised cockpit design adopted by British operators. Derived from the Sikorsky S-58 Choctaw and upgraded with turbine power in UK service, the Wessex became notable during the Falklands conflict. This release uses latest molds and includes a super decal sheet plus photo-etched parts to improve cockpit and external fittings for a faithful scale representation.

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Includes: New molds, super decals sheet, photo-etched parts
  • Assembly: Requires assembly and painting

What level of detail do the photo-etched parts add?

The photo-etched components provide crisp, thin details for areas like grilles and small external fittings that are hard to replicate in plastic alone.

Can this kit be converted for radio control?

The kit is intended as a static scale model; converting it to fly would require significant structural modification and custom engineering beyond the supplied parts.

Are paint masks or aftermarket parts needed?

You can build the kit straight from the box, but many modellers choose aftermarket masks or additional detail sets to simplify painting and enhance fine features.
