Resin wheels with weighted tires for the Airbus A400M in 1:144 scale from the Ukrainian brand Armory. The accessory replaces the wheels from the plastic kit; the aircraft model is not in the box.
Responsibility details are not available.
A resin wheel set for a model of the European Airbus A400M military transport aircraft in 1:144 scale. Next to the name the box gives the nickname Grizzly, which the test machines of the program carried. The tires are cast with a flattening where they touch the ground, so the finished model really does stand on its landing gear. This is not an aircraft kit but an accessory.
The A400M is a four-engine turboprop transport aircraft that first flew at the end of 2009. It is designed to carry a load comparable with jet transport types and at the same time to be able to land on an unpaved or short strip. That is exactly why it has robust multi-wheel main landing gear, which spreads the weight over a larger area and takes rough ground. On this type the propeller blades on each wing turn in opposite directions, which is one of the most conspicuous recognition features on a model.
Wash the castings in warm soapy water and cut the casting blocks off with a saw. Resin is glued with cyanoacrylate glue; cement for plastic does not hold on it. In 1:144 scale the parts are very tiny, so get fine tweezers ready and work over a tray with a raised edge. Do not paint the tire pure black; a gray-black shade with light dusting works better, and on an aircraft meant for unpaved surfaces earthy dust on the wheels is entirely in place. Line the weighted patches up with the ground.
This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
