Eduard BIG49336 OH-13 ITALERI 1/48 is a unique, comprehensive upgrade set dedicated to the OH-13 helicopter model in 1/48 scale, designed primarily for use with Italeri's kit. The set is intended for advanced modelers seeking to elevate their model to the highest level of detail and realism with precise components and dedicated accessories.

The OH-13 Sioux is an American light military helicopter from the Cold War era. It was widely used by the U.S. Army and other countries, including during the Korean War for reconnaissance, medical evacuation, and as a training helicopter. It was known for its high maneuverability and uncomplicated lattice structure, and its distinctive silhouette with the bubble canopy became an icon of early rotary aviation.

The featured BIG49336 set is a collection of three individual upgrade sets from Czech market leader Eduard. The set includes:

• EX860 – a dedicated painting mask for precise painting of the characteristic OH-13 windows without risk of bleeding, ensuring a perfect replication of the original cockpit appearance.
• 491275 – a universal photo-etched detail set for the OH-13, covering cockpit, interior and other essential components to increase the model’s level of detail. Made from high-quality copper sheet, with parts printed using the offset method for extremely crisp detail.
• FE1276 – a set of safety belts made from premium stainless steel (STEEL), faithfully recreating the look and texture of the real OH-13 harnesses.

The entire set is intended for a 1/48 scale plastic model kit, tailored specifically for the Italeri model, ensuring easy assembly and compatibility without modification. These accessories allow you to build a diorama or display with the highest level of historical realism.

We especially recommend the Eduard BIG49336 OH-13 ITALERI 1/48 upgrade set for intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level: 4/5) who are looking for professional additions to significantly enhance the authenticity of the cockpit, interior, and helicopter details. This is the perfect solution for building a unique, showpiece OH-13 model.
