About product

Su-57 boarding ladder in 1:72 scale, LP Models

A separate resin casting of a boarding ladder intended for a model of the Su-57 in 1:72 scale. It is an accessory for aircraft models; the aircraft itself is not included in the package. For a modeler it is the quickest way to add a feature to a finished machine that is almost never missing from photographs of a parked aircraft.

What the ladder is for

The Su-57 is a modern twin-engine fighter whose airframe is shaped for a reduced radar signature. The cockpit sits high above the ground, so a mobile ladder is wheeled up to the fuselage. On a model such an accessory does two things at once: it gives the scene a sense of scale and hints at a story, because the aircraft is not merely on display, the crew is about to climb aboard. In 1:72 scale the ladder is large enough to be noticed at first glance, yet small enough not to overpower the model.

Building and painting tips

Wash the casting in warm soapy water to remove the mold release agent. Cut the casting block off with a saw and wet-sand the surface with respiratory protection. Resin is bonded with super glue, or with epoxy. Paint over a filler primer; after the base shade pick out the edges with a dry brush and add a fine wash in the recesses. Dry-fit the ladder against the model so that the angle it leans at looks natural and the ladder stands on all its feet.

Who the accessory is for

  • Builders of the Su-57 in 1:72 scale
  • Modelers of modern aircraft
  • Creators of smaller scenes and dioramas on an airfield apron
  • Anyone looking for a quick way to liven up a display model

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

According to the name it does not; this is the boarding ladder only. The manufacturer lists the version with chocks as a separate item.

No. It is an accessory for a finished model of the Su-57 in 1:72 scale, and the kit has to be bought separately.

Wash it in warm soapy water, cut the casting block off with a saw, wet-sand it and apply a filler primer before painting.

It does not. Use super glue based on cyanoacrylate, or a two-part epoxy.
