About product

The MD-3T tractor in 1:32 scale

A display case with a large model of an aircraft comes across markedly more alive when the equipment that worked with it on deck is added. This model offers exactly that: a complete vehicle of printed parts, standing on its own and ready to be assembled and sprayed.

A low strongman from the ship's deck

The MD-3 series appeared in the 1950s as the first equipment designed directly for cramped work on the decks of aircraft carriers. Its conspicuously low build allowed it to pass under the fuselage and the nose of parked machines, the diesel drive managed to pull aircraft weighing several tons, and the crews nicknamed the vehicles Mules. The individual letters after the number tell the renditions apart by the equipment the machine carried at the rear. They served for decades before a modernized white generation of tractors replaced them.

Before you start building

It pays to lay out all the parts first and compare them with the drawing, because on printed models there tend to be many small pieces. Remove the supports gradually, so that the thin elements do not break, and rid the finished whole of grease before painting. A base coat of primer is practically compulsory on printed material.

Who will enjoy it

  • builders of large aircraft models looking for accompanying equipment
  • makers of scenes from flight decks and bases
  • more experienced modelers used to printed and resin parts
  • collectors of unusual ground equipment

It is supplied unassembled and with no finish; paints, cyanoacrylate glue and any display base are obtained separately.

FAQ

It moved and towed aircraft in cramped space. Its low build allowed it to pass even under the fuselage of a parked machine.

They are told apart by the equipment carried at the rear of the vehicle. A detailed specification of the T rendition, though, is not stated here.

Rather not. Printed parts call for careful removal of the supports, sanding and work with cyanoacrylate glue.

Yes, degreasing is crucial on printed material. Without it the paint holds badly and may peel.
