Primary users was Royal Air Force and Royal NAVY, but the Westland Sea King was also used by Indian and Germany NAVY. It was utilized mainly as an Airborne Early Warning system as well as Search and Rescue helicopter. Its reliability made it a good choice for Falklands and Gulf wars and later on in missions in Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan. Multiple examples are still flying to this day.

The Mask set
from DN Models is designed using Airfix #A11006 – Westland Sea King HAS.1/HAS.5/HU.5 1/48. The clear parts featured in this kit will most likely be used in more different releases in the future. The mask set covers all the clear sprue elements, therefore any future kit with the same clear sprue will be covered. The mask set is designed specifically for Airfix tooling and cannot be used with any other kit in quarter scale, like for example Hasegawa Sea King variants. Interior and exterior masks are included in this set.
