I brought a ship deck plan into Shipbucket scale that had a Sea Hawk in it. I deleted it from my drawing but pulled up the original picture and here it is. I don't know if its smaller than the original Shipbucket drawing but it should be right in scale unless the shipbuilder was using the wrong Sea Hawk information.
And it looks like the original Shipbucket drawing is right in scale. The 41.1 feet long length is for the Seahawk when the tail is folded.

I used the picture from TurretHead, then base on model B but I missed out the magnetic sensor, because I can't find it on the drawing, model F didn't have search radar on the fuselage.

Hate to be a nit picker but the fold in the Sea Hawk's tail boom is not at right angles to the ground. It is angled. So the tail rotor fin is angeled forward when folded and comes in lower than the rotors. Of course it is a minor change and you'd have to be highly committed to attention to detail to make the change. And there is no one like that around here! (;)

It's normal that the trace of the tail rotor is not round ?
Thanks and greetings.
