About product

Air intakes and the B-33 supercharger for the P-38F

A set of replacement parts from Quickboost for a model of the Lockheed P-38F Lightning in 1:48 scale. It replaces the air intakes and the supercharger unit designated B-33. These are parts that can be seen on a model both from above and from the side, so they tell on the final impression more than their size would suggest.

The real subject

The P-38 Lightning was an American twin-engine fighter with an unusual layout: the cockpit and the armament were concentrated in a short central nacelle, while the engines carried two longitudinal booms ending in the tail surfaces. The engines were piston engines, liquid-cooled and supercharged. The supercharging unit sat on the upper side of the boom behind the engine and, together with the openings for induction and cooling, is among the most conspicuous features of the whole design.

  • replacement air intakes and the B-33 supercharger unit
  • for a P-38F Lightning model in 1:48 scale
  • it replaces the corresponding parts of the kit
  • bonded with super glue
  • wash and degrease before painting

Installation and painting

First try the parts dry in their seats on the model and only then glue them. Cut the excess material away with a sharp blade a little way from the part and sand the rest so that the part seats over its whole area and the outline of the opening stays crisp. The parts are not polystyrene, so polystyrene cement has no effect on them; use super glue. Wash and degrease the surface before painting. It is worth painting the inside of the openings before you seat the parts, because afterward a brush will no longer reach in.

The particular kit is not stated here for this item. So try the parts dry and adjust the seating as needed.

Super glue. They are not polystyrene, so polystyrene cement has no effect on them.

Paint the inside of the openings first, then seat the parts and sand the joints. Once the opening is closed a brush will no longer reach in.
