My two 824 NAS Sea King HAS.2 are complete. This is actually one in the same helicopter, No.50 XV660, which sailed on 5 April 1982 from Devonport to join up with the Carrier Battle Group aboard RFA Olmeda in the first week of the Falklands War.
All white markings and squadron emblems were overpainted en route to the Falklands where their role quickly changed from anti submarine to Jungley (troop and load lifting), hence the 2 versions. I am awaiting delivery of a set of torpedos for the landed Sea King.
