About product

Air Refueling Probe A-4 Skyhawk – Late 1:48 (Quickboost)

A resin detail set, not an airplane kit. This finely cast resin set replaces the fixed air refueling probe of the American Douglas A-4 Skyhawk carrier light attack aircraft in 1:48 scale. The version matches the late type of probe. The casting brings fine shapes and an accurate tip that are hard to form in plastic. The set is meant for advanced modelers with resin experience.

What the set is for

The refueling probe projects ahead of the nose and is conspicuous on a model, so its exact shape has a strong effect on the final impression. The resin replacement is finer than the thicker plastic part from the box and captures the tip of the probe more faithfully. Once painted and lightly weathered, it looks realistic.

Usage tips

  • Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water to remove mold release residue
  • Cut off the casting blocks and sand the surfaces with respiratory protection
  • Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate)
  • Seat the slender part carefully and watch the angle and the position on the fuselage

Who the set is for

  • For builders of the A-4 Skyhawk attack aircraft in 1:48 scale
  • For advanced modelers with resin experience
  • For lovers of fine detail and an accurate refueling probe

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

FAQ

No. It is a resin refueling probe that completes a kit you already own. The base aircraft model has to be bought separately.

The refueling probe of the Skyhawk changed shape over its service life. This part matches the late type; choose according to your subject.

It takes a little experience. The parts are washed to remove mold release, cut off the casting blocks and bonded with super glue. Seat the slender part carefully.
