The S-61A SeaKing variant was used by the United Kingdom, Denmark, Norway, India, and Australia, among others. The examples presented in the \"Antarctica Observation\" version were used during research expeditions in Antarctica, serving for supply transport, logistical support, and observation in the harshest polar conditions. The activity of these helicopters occurred during the 1960s, 70s, and 80s, i.e., during the Cold War era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eModel Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/72 – allows for building a detailed, compact model, ideal for helicopter collections.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-grade plastic ensuring durability and excellent detail quality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdd-ons:\u003c\/strong\u003e The set includes precise decals with Antarctic expedition markings, a detailed assembly instruction, cockpit elements with an accurately reproduced pilot's station, and realistic external details such as radar and external equipment typical for polar expeditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBox Contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e The kit does not include glue or paints, but allows for full personalization of painting for a specific Antarctic mission.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Dragon 5111 S-61A SeaKing \"Antarctica Observation\" model is an excellent choice for intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level 3\/5) interested in aviation technology, polar expeditions, or Cold War military history.
