About product

AT-38B Talon LIFT Trainer in 1:48 scale from the brand Wolfpack

A kit of the AT-38B Talon trainer in 1:48 scale from the South Korean brand Wolfpack. It is a model intended to be glued together and painted, not a finished model. The contents of the package, the number of parts and the number of color schemes are given on the box and in the enclosed instructions.

The real subject

The Northrop T-38 Talon is a two-seat supersonic trainer with a pair of turbojets, a thin wing and cockpits in tandem. It was created at the end of the 1950s and became one of the longest serving trainer types of all. The AT-38B variant is its modified version for the final phase of training combat pilots, known by the abbreviation LIFT. Compared with the basic trainer version it received equipment for practicing combat use and revised instrumentation; the machines also differed in a more striking service finish.

Building and painting tips

The slender fuselage with its large share of smooth surfaces puts the emphasis on cleanly sanded joints. Before closing the fuselage up, check whether the model will not sit back on its tail on the landing gear; on aircraft of similar shape with a long nose, weight usually has to be added. Build and paint the two-seat cockpits before the fuselage halves are glued together. A smooth glossy surface reveals every unevenness, so use a filling primer and sand lightly between coats. Apply gloss varnish under the decals and, once they are dry, even the surface out with a matte or semi-matte coat according to the scheme chosen.

Who the model is for

  • Modelers interested in trainers and training aircraft.
  • Builders of models in 1:48 scale with a feel for smooth painted surfaces.
  • Those who put together a collection of machines of the American training line.
  • More experienced modelers who can handle a thin wing and the need for balancing.

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

It is a modification for the final phase of training combat pilots, with equipment for practicing combat use and revised instrumentation.

Rather for a more advanced builder. The model has a large share of smooth surfaces, which do not forgive uneven joints, and it usually calls for the nose to be weighted.
