These figures look awesome. One note though, the Fast Rope rig is an older USAF type, not universal for all H-60s.
The USAF type is called an H-Bar. It was replaced with the FRIES (Fast Rope Insertion/Extraction System, Army type) starting in the mid-2000's. All USAF HH-60Gs have the FRIES bar now.
USAF H-Bar as in the set.
The Army FRIES rig is different in that it has one central beam and two pipes that come off it with connections on their ends for the rope.
