AH-64 Apache M230 Chain Gun (in parking position) for Hasegawa/Academy kit (3D printing) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0324 for Helicopters Model Kit

Aftermarket resin and 3D printed accessory designed for helicopter scale model kits, representing the M230 Chain Gun mounted under the fuselage of the AH-64 Apache.

Detailed parts intended for accurate 1/48 scale helicopter models, reproducing the shape of the M230 gun assembly positioned in the typical parking configuration.

The M230 chain gun is mounted in a turret under the nose of the AH-64 Apache and is a prominent visual element of the helicopter. This set helps refine the barrel structure and gun housing so the nose turret area reflects the characteristic geometry of the Apache.

For modelers: dry-fit the gun assembly in the turret mount before painting to confirm correct alignment. Painting the gun barrel and housing separately can help preserve fine structural details before final installation.
