Description
ResKit RSU48-0404 provides a detailed aerial refueling tube designed for the Sikorsky CH-53E Super Stallion and MH-53E Sea Dragon. The part represents the prominent refueling probe assembly used during aerial refueling operations.
This aftermarket accessory is intended for 1/48 scale helicopter model kits and replaces simplified kit parts with a more accurate representation of the probe structure and mounting geometry.
The component is produced using high-resolution 3D printing, allowing precise reproduction of the tubular structure and attachment elements visible on the real aircraft.
The upgrade is designed for the Academy helicopter kit and helps improve one of the most recognizable external features of the aircraft's nose section.
For modelers: test-fit the refueling probe to the fuselage mounting area before painting. Installing the probe at the final stage of the build helps prevent damage to the thin structure and keeps alignment accurate.
