This aircraft extends and increases shipboard sensor and weapon capabilities against several types of enemy threats, including submarines of all types, surface ships, and patrol craft that may be armed with anti-ship missiles. It was originally developed for the United States Navy in 1980s.
The Matchbox 75d Seasprite Helicopter was brought into the range in 1977 and remained there until 1981. They are always white over a red underside and have black rotors, the variation comes from different coloured windows. Blue or green are most commonly found with some in red and fewer in purple, This does have a very marginal effect on value.
