Its greatest advantage was a unique design featuring a cabin for four occupants and a distinctively wide fuselage that allowed for the short-range transport of personnel and light equipment. In practice, it was used both by the United States Army and by the Department of Veterans Affairs as well as other government agencies. The CH-1 Skyhook served primarily as an observation, transport, and rescue helicopter; it participated in exercises and demonstration operations during the Cold War era, but was not widely used in combat. Production of this helicopter continued until the late 1950s.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eKit Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAccurately reproduced shape of the CH-1 Skyhook helicopter\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eClear parts for a realistic cockpit\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSprues do not include photo-etched parts, metal barrels, or resin accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eKit does not include glue or paints\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003ePrecise details, excellently rendered rotors and armament\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eDifficulty Level\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThis model is intended for intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty: 3\/5).
