Chuck:

The only model that I am aware of is an already assembled and painted
manufacturers display model available from Eurocopter. It's pretty
expensive to boot at almost $90.00! Matchbox produced a 1/72 version
which can be found with a little searching. Hope this helps.

Heller used to make a model of the Dauphin 1 (the early tail-sitter
version), don't remember offhand whether it was 1/48 or 1/50. I had one,
with grand ideas of converting it into a Dauphin 2 - or actually into a
USCG HH-65 Dolphin, like I converted the 1/72 Matchbox Dauphin 2. The
idea died and I sold the kit.

There is a Heller one , with two options SA360 or SA365 , but not the
N version (like US Coast Guard) . If interested , drop me a line , I
think someone im my club has one to sell or trade.

Darko:

Just for information, the U.S. Coast Guard version is an SA366G or for
military designation HH65A. The major difference is a larger fenestron
and more tail rotor blades for increased tail rotor thrust. Cheers.
