Naval Helicopters and a Flying boat
by Pablo Cicero
1/400 Naval Helicopters and a Flying boat (Various Paper)
In the spirit of the 2010 April Fool's update here at Modelwarships, here are paper models of helicopters
(and a flying boat) mainly from the Japan Coast Guard and Self Defense Forces; some helicopters are on the Shirase Icebreaker yet to be built. In addition I am including helicopters that have operated from the Visby. The Shin Meiwa US-1A flying boat can actually fly (glide).
