![]() ![]() When I saw what Revell has delivered for the price, I was bowled over. You are confronted with a massive end opening box (I’m not a huge fan as I like to store the completed sub-assemblies in the box) that is weighty and get this we modellers talk about sticker shock, but in this instance it’s in your favour, yep at Hannants you are looking at £19.99 for EU prices. I guess first impressions should always count, and WOW what a first impression the Revell Westland Sea Lynx Mk.88A leaves you with. The aircraft are based at Naval Air Wing 3, Nordholz and are flown by 3rd Squadron. The Sea Lynx are embarked aboard the F122, F123 and F124 class frigates. The first Sea Lynx Mk.88A bound for the German Navy had its roll-out in July 1999. ![]() ![]() The German order consisted of seven new build helicopters plus conversion of the remaining 17 original Mk.88s. The Sea Lynx Mk.88A is a third-generation naval Lynx, upgraded for export to the German Navy featuring Gem 42 engines, under-nose radome with a 360° traverse Marconi Sea Spray 3000 radar, dipping sonar, BAe Matra Sea Skua anti-shipping missiles and on some airframes a multi-role turret (MRT)with forward looking infra-red (a GEC MST FLIR in the nose). The only 1/32 Sea lynx on the market, and it’s incredible value for under £ 20.įor some, the lack of raised rivet head detail. £ 19.99 plus shipping available online from Hannants 265 white and clear plastic parts, 19 page instruction booklet and decals
