About product

Remove Before Flight covers for the MiG-23MF in 1:48 scale

A set of resin covers and plugs with Remove Before Flight tags from the Quickboost brand (a range of the Czech manufacturer Aires) for the model of the MiG-23MF fighter in 1:48 scale. The small red tags scattered over the airframe are exactly the detail a viewer stops at: they tell you the machine is secured between flights, and they contrast beautifully with a bare metal gray finish as well as with camouflage. They go superbly with the intake covers to make up a fully buttoned-up machine.

The real subject

The MiG-23MF was the export fighter variant of the MiG-23 with a variable-geometry wing; the Czechoslovak Air Force took it on in the second half of the 1970s, and the machines served there until the early 1990s. The ground crew protected the pitot-static sensors, the probes and the openings of a parked machine with covers carrying warning tags that had to be removed, and that is where their internationally familiar name comes from.

Building and painting tips

Separate the very fine castings with a razor saw and glue them with the tip of a toothpick using a minimum of super glue. Paint the tags a deep red and lighten the edges slightly; a slight bend in each tag in a different direction looks lively. Fit the covers only onto a completely finished model, after the clear coat and the decals.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of the MiG-23MF in 1:48 scale, including Czechoslovak machines
  • Diorama builders, for a machine parked on the apron between flights
  • Modelers looking for a small detail with a big effect
  • Collectors who combine intake covers with warning tags

This is an accessory set: the model of the airplane, the glue and the paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

Yes, the MiG-23MF also served with the Czechoslovak Air Force, so the set is ideal for exactly that treatment.

FOD covers close off the air intakes, while this set deals with the small covers and plugs on the probes and openings, with warning tags. The two sets complement each other well on a model.

Only after the clear coat and the decals are finished, because the castings are very fine and would easily snap off during further handling.
