About product

DH.9a Liberty V.12 Engine 1:32 (HGW, photo-etched set)

This is NOT an airplane model but a brass photo-etched set in 1:32 scale aimed at the engine. It holds fine metal parts for a detailed rendering of the American twelve-cylinder Liberty V.12 engine that powered the British bomber DH.9a. Photo-etch adds the fine elements of the power unit, such as the lines, the brackets and the fittings, that cannot be cast faithfully in plastic.

The real subject

The Liberty L-12 was an American water-cooled twelve-cylinder engine in a V layout of around four hundred horsepower. It arose during the First World War as a standardized power unit and it became the heart of the DH.9a bomber. Its power gave the aircraft the range and the load it needed.

Usage tips

Separate the parts with a sharp knife and make the fine bends over the scored lines. Glue them with cyanoacrylate glue. The engine comes out well when painted in metallic shades and the detail is then brought out with a wash.

Who the set is for

  • modelers building the DH.9a with the engine exposed
  • anyone interested in a detailed rendering of the power unit
  • advanced builders used to photo-etch
  • collectors of 1:32 scale

This is an accessory for raising the level of detail of a kit. The base model, glue and paints are not included in the package.
