AH-64 Apache M230 Chain Gun (in fly position) for Takom/Academy kit (3D printing) Scale 1:35 ResKit RSU35-0048 for Helicopters Model Kit

ResKit RSU35-0048 is a 3D printed aftermarket accessory for helicopter scale model kits, representing the M230 chain gun used on the AH-64 Apache. This set is intended for detailed 1/35 scale helicopter model builds and depicts the gun assembly positioned in the typical forward flight orientation.

The M230 gun is mounted beneath the Apache fuselage and forms a recognizable element of the helicopter’s lower nose structure. Accurate reproduction of the gun barrel, housing, and mounting frame helps refine the appearance of this prominent external feature.

For modelers: dry-fit the gun mount within the nose turret area before final installation to confirm correct alignment with the fuselage structure. When preparing 3D printed parts, remove any remaining support points carefully and lightly sand the connection surfaces.
