It was created in response to the need of the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (SOAR) Night Stalkers for an armed escort helicopter for transport aircraft. Existing AH-1 and AH-64 attack helicopters were not well suited to operating alongside transport helicopters, so the standard MH-60L was adapted into a powerful gunship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe MH-60L DAP was designed to escort transport helicopters, provide direct fire support, engage armoured vehicles, and suppress enemy air defences in all weather conditions, day and night. Its main weapons included laser-guided AGM-114 Hellfire missiles and the 30 mm M230 Chain Gun. The Hellfire missiles allowed it to engage armoured targets, while the M230, with a rate of fire of up to 625 rounds per minute, was effective against light armoured vehicles, trucks, and infantry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn FLIR turret with a laser rangefinder\/designator was mounted beneath the nose for weapon targeting. Integrated with the pilots’ helmet-mounted displays, the system allowed weapons to be aimed by turning the pilot’s head.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKey Features\u003cbr\u003eLegendary MH-60L attach helicopter operated by U.S. Special Operations Forces\u003cbr\u003eIncludes AGM-114 Hellfire guided missiles and an M230 cannon\u003cbr\u003eAccurately reproduced geometry corresponding to the original helicopter\u003cbr\u003eTwo options for reproducing the aerial refuelling system\u003cbr\u003ePainting schemes and decals with two marking options for the helicopters\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModel Information\u003cbr\u003eScale: 1:48\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Parts: 300\u003cbr\u003eLength: 421 mm\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 343 mm\u003cbr\u003eIncludes detailed assembly instructions\u003cbr\u003eHighly detailed sprues with high accuracy made from quality plastic","brand":"ICM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54850874704209,"sku":"ICM48366","price":53.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0865\/4992\/2129\/files\/icm48366_1.jpg?v=1789119184","url":"https:\/\/www.jadlamracingmodels.com\/products\/icm-48366-mh-60l-dap-us-special-forces-attack-helicopter-1-48-model-kit","provider":"Jadlam Toys \u0026 Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
