About the Sikorsky MH-53 Sea Dragon

The Sikorsky MH-53 Sea Dragon was the U.S. Navy's dedicated airborne mine countermeasures helicopter, developed from the legendary CH-53 Sea Stallion. The MH-53E variant featured enlarged sponsons for additional fuel capacity, enabling extended missions over water, and was equipped with sophisticated mine detection and neutralization systems. Powered by three General Electric T64 turboshaft engines, the Sea Dragon could tow mine-sweeping sleds and deploy mine countermeasures equipment to clear sea lanes for naval operations. The MH-53E served from 1986 until 2017, playing a crucial role in keeping shipping lanes safe. The Sea Dragon's distinctive profile and specialized mission make it a favorite subject for naval helicopter enthusiasts and modern military aviation modelers.

What's Included

Eduard's CX series masks are precision-cut from thin, flexible vinyl that conforms perfectly to complex canopy curves and wheel hubs. The set typically includes canopy frame masks for both interior and exterior surfaces, wheel hub masks, and any additional glazed areas. The self-adhesive backing ensures secure placement without residue, while the material's flexibility allows it to follow compound curves without lifting or leaking paint.

Paint masks save hours of tedious hand-masking with tape, eliminate the risk of uneven paint lines, and allow you to achieve professional results even on complex multi-pane canopies.
