About product

A Set of Four GBU-38 JDAM Bombs in 1:48 Scale

The package holds four resin castings of the GBU-38 bomb in 1:48 scale. It is not a model of an aircraft but an armament accessory with which the racks of a finished model are loaded. Four pieces correspond to the ordinary need of one model, on which the bomb is hung on several racks at once.

The real subject

The designation JDAM is used for the guidance kit that turns an ordinary unguided bomb into guided ordnance. The kit consists of a tail unit with inertial and satellite navigation and of aerodynamic strakes on the body of the bomb; the body itself stays standard. The GBU-38 is based on the bomb of 500 pounds, so it is the smallest of the family and is carried several pieces at a time. In shape it is an elongated body with a pronounced angular tail module, which differs at a glance from the conventional tail of an unguided bomb.

Building and painting tips

Wash the castings in warm water with detergent, so that the mold release agent disappears. Cut the casting block off with a saw and level the surface by sanding wet with respiratory protection. It is glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). When loading them, see to it that all the pieces hang on the same axis and at the same height; asymmetrical stores show more on a finished model than a missing detail does. Paint over a primer, in thin coats; add any markings from sources of your own.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of modern combat aircraft in 1:48 scale.
  • Modelers who want ordnance sharper than the plastic in the box offers.
  • Those who load their racks with one uniform set of bombs instead of assembling them from various sources.
  • More experienced modelers used to resin and cyanoacrylate.

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

Four pieces, as the name of the set states. Further particulars of the contents of the package follow the manufacturer's details.

It is the guidance kit fitted to an ordinary unguided bomb: a tail unit with inertial and satellite navigation plus aerodynamic strakes on the body.

Modern combat aircraft in 1:48 scale that carry this type of ordnance. Please confirm the particular combination of aircraft and rack against your own real subject.

The name gives only the number of pieces. Reckon on possibly adding the markings yourself from sources of your own.
