Any idea how the Elint Barrels actually worked?
Kevin
I presume they were full of different antennas with any signal pricessing in the helicopter itself.

I don't know either.  I think the original scheme was the camouflage then the yellow bits were added - for what reason is anybody's guess.
Just wait till the green antenna oil drums get added.

Perhaps they've gone for a disruptive scheme? People look at it and can't belive what they're seeing!!!

It will be very eye catching on the model table that's for sure!
