Black Ops 4007 1/35 MD500 Float Kit (1 set)

Recreate the distinctive over-water look of a tuna-spotting or offshore-working MD-500 with this highly detailed 1/35 scale inflatable emergency float system.

Kit contains 1 set
Accurate scale profile of forward & aft inflatable pontoons in protective casings
Fits standard MD-500 skids (skid extension detail included)
Captures the quick-deploy, lightweight look of the real system
On the full-size aircraft, these floats are fitted for open-water operations - most famously on tuna-boat MD-500s in the Pacific. In the event of a ditching, the inflated pontoons keep the helicopter afloat. The real DART system is FAA/EASA/TCCA certified, with forward & aft pontoons, skid-tube extensions, and quick-release fittings.

The MD-500 is the most common tuna-spotting helicopter thanks to its compact rotor, agility, and affordability - ideal for shipboard operations.
Perfect for:
Tuna-spotting or fishing vessel dioramas
Offshore, SAR, or utility helicopter builds
Bring this unique variant to life and capture the operational edge of the MD-500.
