Italeri AW-101 Merlin HM.1 Plastic Model Kit - 1:72 Scale

Tamiya 1:72 Scale Plastic Kit

The AW-101 Merlin is a medium-heavy multirole helicopter developed by AgustaWestland (now Leonardo) in collaboration with Westland Helicopters. It was designed and developed in response to requirements from both the British Royal Navy and the Italian Navy to replace the now-obsolete SH-3D "Sea King." Entering service in the early 2000s, it serves primarily as an embarked anti-submarine warfare (ASW) helicopter.

However, due to its operational flexibility, it is well-suited, in its various configurations, for troop transport, maritime search and rescue (SAR), and combat SAR (CSAR) missions. It can operate in extreme weather conditions and across all operational environments. Powered by three turbines, the Merlin reaches a maximum speed of 310 km/h and has an operational range exceeding 1,350 km.
