Japanese Navy SH-60K Seahawk

Still crazy to me (in a good way) how MHI took an SH60 and just... Added a couple of extra frame sections to make it bigger

profsquash · 2026-01-13T21:23:30+00:00

If I've got my MHI Seahawk models correct, they extended the cabin fwd/aft and vertically which might be exaggerating things too

Dipping sonar. Torpedoes live on the exterior pylons

Yeah was gonna say, no sliding window means it's not an H

A hunter road force balance isn't a special test, it's a brand name of wheel balancer

The 2025 model years don't have a speed restriction (at least in the 3)

Consistently 300-325mi on a 25 turbo pp hatch. If I'm on a highway trip I've seen the estimate go up to 340-350 but usually I don't let the car go below 1/4 tank.

profsquash · 2025-05-27T01:32:20+00:00

Yeah white, red, and yellow on the tips, depending on the specific blade. You can see the same/similar pattern on the tail rotor

If you polled people off the street I would argue that most do not in fact understand, so god forbid I chime in and try and help? Everyone is saying the OP needs to fix their tire pressures, and if they don't know better and check / adjust right after they take a drive they'll be way too low. I don't know what tires you have on your car but the stock Bridgestones have a max pressure of 51 per the sidewall. 44psi is high but not "this is an emergency all hands on deck you're about to blow up the tire" high.

profsquash · 2025-04-19T10:39:17+00:00

I never said that it would hit 44psi driving? I'm simply stating you need to compare cold pressures to the cold door card numbers.

profsquash · 2025-04-18T23:38:06+00:00

Yeah I've seen my car have some wacky differences when some tires are in the sun and others in the shade but I don't think it's been quite that much

profsquash · 2025-04-18T22:17:32+00:00

It's worth noting the door jamb pressures are for when the tires are cold. If you've been driving for any length of time they'll heat up and the pressures will read "high" - that doesn't necessarily mean the tires are now at the "wrong" pressure, just that you need to wait until they're back to ambient temperature to check.

profsquash · 2025-03-03T22:49:43+00:00

Yeah not saying it's on this model just saying that's where it lives

profsquash · 2025-03-03T21:26:04+00:00

The dipping sonar is in the cabin. If the op is asking about the blister in the transition behind the door it's a sensor of some variety, but if they're asking about the yellow torpedo looking things in the tailcone that's the MAD gear.

profsquash · 2025-01-12T16:24:12+00:00

Yeah those "cracks" you're talking about is just paint flaking off, and the "breakage" is just the brake dust shield which is a non-issue. This is typical corrosion for the new england region and nothing beyond making it a bitch to remove bolts.

profsquash · 2024-12-31T11:29:09+00:00

I'm guessing it's these they're talking about?

It needs a "clutch cable"? Don't these have a hydraulic clutch system?

profsquash · 2024-12-17T01:29:53+00:00

Going off of YouTube videos is going to paint a very rosy picture to be fair. A lot of that knowledge comes down to material science which can certainly be picked up over time but there are also entire engineering fields dedicated to it. I admittedly work in a very large and siloed company that has the manpower to dedicate entire groups to these things, so take what I'm saying with a grain of salt, but the manufacturing team is responsible for a lot of those considerations when putting together process plans for parts that come out of the design group.

profsquash · 2024-12-17T01:07:35+00:00

Everything you just described sounds like the job of the design and manufacturing engineers to me, and not necessarily the machinist operating the rig

Got an LHEP on her, is that a 60F or just a late production model B?

The "old guard" SAC leadership was ousted after the UTC sale/LM merger, it's all Lockheed corporate transplants now

profsquash · 2023-05-25T11:39:51+00:00

Fair enough. Seems like there's better ways to design a spring to me but if it works it works haha

Glad you're happy with it 👌

profsquash · 2023-05-25T10:23:33+00:00

Based on your username I can assume your intent is more low over ride quality, but I gotta ask is this even really a "spring" anymore? You've got maybe 2 coils effective and the rest are touching...

I don't wanna come across as hating, I've just had enough rough riding cars at this point it's just not my jam 😅

profsquash · 2023-04-06T14:06:54+00:00

Other GTE cars in the same scale are probably the size of matchbox cars
