About product

P-38J Lightning, horizontal tail surfaces 1:72 (CMK)

This resin set replaces the horizontal tail surfaces (the stabilizer with the elevator) on plastic models of the twin-boom Lockheed P-38J Lightning fighter in 1:72 scale. The casting has fine surface detail and a more accurate section shape than the plastic parts from the base kit. It is not an aircraft model but a detail accessory for superdetailing.

The real subject

The P-38 Lightning was an American twin-engine fighter with its distinctive twin-boom layout and a central nacelle. The J version was among the powerful late variants used during the Second World War in Europe and in the Pacific. The tail surfaces are carried on a crossbeam joining the rear ends of the two booms.

Usage tips

  • Separate the parts from the casting blocks and clean up the faces with a fine file.
  • Wash off any mold release residue before gluing and let them dry.
  • Bond with super glue; try the mating faces dry beforehand.
  • Fill and sand the transitions if need be, with respiratory protection.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want truer P-38J tail surfaces at a small scale.
  • Builders with experience of resin accessories.

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted, as resin parts. Paints, glue and the base model are not included in the package.
