## Description

MH-53E Sea Dragon

Review: Model helicopter - Good model kit but they could do a better style of instructions.and Better amount for money value fit was okay
Review: Great product! - I've built Italeri models before and found them well made and of good quality. Normaly I build 1/35 scale, but this time, due to limited places to display my dioramas, I'm going with1/72. Yes there's less detail on the model, but you can make up for it either detail on the diorama. The model arrived quickly, in great shape and complete. I will do business with Italeri in the future.
