Voyager Model 1:35 M2A3 Bradley — photo-etched set of reactive armor is an aftermarket accessory for a plastic kit you already own, not a standalone model of the vehicle. The set is cut for the Meng SS-004 kit and replaces the coarser plastic parts of the add-on armor with fine metal photo-etched parts.
Responsibility details are not available.
This item is not a kit of the vehicle but an add-on set of photo-etched metal from the Chinese manufacturer Voyager Model. It is meant for the Meng SS-004 plastic kit and its purpose is to give the add-on reactive armor a scale thickness and crisp edges. Because of mold draft angles and the necessary stiffness of the parts, injection-molded plastic always has a heavier profile than reality would call for; photo-etched sheet removes that compromise.
The M2 Bradley is an American tracked infantry fighting vehicle that combines carrying a squad with fire support from an autocannon and anti-tank guided missiles. The M2A3 version brought digitized electronics, new observation and sighting instruments and changes to the protection. The add-on reactive armor is fitted as an array of tiles held in frames on the sides of the hull and on the turret, and is meant to reduce the effect of shaped charge warheads. The array changes the silhouette of the vehicle markedly, so it is a rewarding but detail-demanding feature.
Degrease the brass photo-etched parts with alcohol or dish soap before working and pick them up with tweezers, not with your fingers. Separate the parts with a scalpel cut on a hard surface, never by twisting. Take the bends on the marked grooves, ideally in a simple bending tool or between two blades, so that the edge comes out crisp and straight. They are glued with cyanoacrylate applied in a minimal amount on the tip of a toothpick; excess cannot be hidden on metal. Before painting, lay on a thin primer meant for metal, otherwise paint holds poorly on smooth brass.
The package holds add-on photo-etched metal parts only. You will not find the plastic kit, glue or paints in it.
