About product

A-26B Invader - photo-etched set in 1:48 scale

The package contains photo-etched metal parts that are glued onto an A-26B plastic kit in 1:48 scale you have already bought. It is therefore not an airplane model but an accessory that replaces or adds the details injection-molded plastic can only manage in a simplified form. The manufacturer is Eduard, a Czech company with long experience of making photo-etch for plastic modelers. Because the name of the set gives only the aircraft type, check the data on the packaging to see which parts of the model the parts relate to and which kit they are meant for.

The real subject

The Douglas A-26 Invader was an American twin-engined attack and light bomber aircraft with a crew of three that entered service in the final phase of the Second World War and, in various modifications, served long afterwards. The B version could be told by its solid, unglazed nose fitted with gun armament, unlike the C version with a glazed nose for the navigator. The aircraft had twin-row radial engines and, for its category, a high speed.

Building and painting tips

Before assembly, lay the parts out and try fitting them dry, especially the interior features you can no longer reach once the fuselage is glued together. Separate the metal from the fret with a scalpel and file the small remains of the tabs flush. Make the bends in a bending tool or against a metal ruler, always in one movement. Bond with super glue applied with the tip of a piece of wire. Degrease unpainted parts and spray them with primer; on pre-colored features, on the other hand, do not use any covering paint. A thin wash that runs into the gaps will bring out the sharp edges of the metal.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of American aircraft of the late 1940s in 1:48 scale
  • Modelers for whom the detail straight from the kit is not enough
  • More experienced builders used to working with metal
  • Display case and competition builds

This is an accessory, not a kit. The base model, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

It is not. These are photo-etched accessories, and the A-26B plastic kit in 1:48 scale has to be bought separately.

The name gives only the aircraft type. You will find the exact contents and purpose on the packaging of the set from the manufacturer.

The B version had a solid unglazed nose with gun armament, the C version a glazed nose for the navigator.
