About product

Mk.44 US NAVY torpedoes 1:48 (Aerobonus, a resin set)

The set represents American Mk.44 lightweight anti-submarine torpedoes in 1:48 scale. It is not a stand-alone model but a resin accessory of carried armament for complementing the external stores of an aircraft or helicopter model. The resin castings offer fine detail of the torpedo body as well as its tail section. The set makes it possible to arm models of US Navy carrier-based anti-submarine machines realistically.

The real subject

The Mk.44 is an American lightweight anti-submarine torpedo with acoustic homing that was dropped from aircraft and helicopters and also launched from surface vessels. It belonged to the armament of naval anti-submarine defense during the Cold War. It was gradually supplemented by the newer Mk.46 type, but the Mk.44 can be found on a number of period machines.

Building and painting tips

Wash the mold release agent off the parts, cut off the casting blocks with a sharp knife and glue them with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Unify the body with a primer, spray the shade according to the scheme and bring out the surface with a fine wash. Protect your airways when sanding resin.

Who the set is for

  • For modelers building carrier-based anti-submarine aircraft and helicopters.
  • For builders who want to arm a model with period naval armament.
  • For collectors of aerial and naval armament in 1:48 scale.
  • For more advanced modelers used to resin.

The set is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The base model, glue, paints and the racks are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
