About product

P-47 Thunderbolt – landing gear bays 1:48 (Aires)

A resin detail set, not an airplane model. This resin set from Aires in 1:48 scale brings the landing gear bays of the American Republic P-47 Thunderbolt fighter. It replaces the shallow or empty bays from the box with a faithfully rendered structure of bracing, piping and wiring. The set is intended for experienced modelers; the base kit has to be bought separately.

The real subject

The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt was a massive American single-seat fighter and ground-attack aircraft of the Second World War with a powerful radial engine and eight heavy machine guns. It was one of the largest single-engine fighters of its day. Its wing landing gear bays had a rich internal structure, which the resin casting captures precisely.

Tips for working with resin

  • Wash the parts free of mold release residue from the mold
  • Cut the casting blocks off with a saw; do not snap them off
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue
  • Bring out the structure of the bays with a wash; protect your breathing when sanding

Who the set is for

  • For builders of the P-47 Thunderbolt in 1:48 scale
  • For experienced modelers with resin experience
  • For lovers of landing gear bay detail
  • For those for whom the bays from the box are not enough

This is a 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 detail set of landing gear bays that replaces the bays in your P-47 model. The base kit has to be bought separately.

They are the spaces in the wing into which the landing gear retracts. They are clearly visible on a model, and a faithful structure raises the realism of the underside of the aircraft considerably.

Resin bays usually call for reworking the surrounding plastic so that they seat exactly. It is best to try the parts dry before gluing.

Not really. Working with resin and reshaping the wing are tasks for a more experienced modeler familiar with this material.
