I then began adding the photo etch railing around the vessel. Navy, and it is licence built in Japan by Mistuibishi under license from Sikorsky. This helicopter is based on the SH-60B ASW helicopter used by the US I started this session by building and painting, and then adding the decals/markings to the SH-60J ASW Seahhawk that the Atago carries.
