About product

Eduard photo-etched set P-47N Thunderbolt 1:48

A fine photo-etch detail set in 1:48 scale from the Czech manufacturer Eduard. It is not an aircraft kit but an accessory in thin etched metal parts, most often brass, with which you replace or complete the small details on a plastic model of the P-47N Thunderbolt fighter that cannot be molded in plastic at the right fineness. The set is meant for more experienced modelers.

The real subject

The Republic P-47 Thunderbolt was a massive American single-seat fighter with a radial engine and a turbocharger. The P-47N version was created for the war in the Pacific — it was given a larger wing with integral tanks and a markedly longer range, so that it could escort bombers on long-distance flights over Japan.

Building tips

Nip the etched parts carefully out of the fret and clean up the tabs. Bend them over a sharp edge (a photo-etch bending tool works well) and join them with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Before varnishing, degrease the parts and apply a primer for good paint adhesion; areas pre-printed in color should be varnished only with care.

Who the set is for

  • For modelers building a P-47N Thunderbolt model in 1:48 scale
  • For those who want finer detail than plastic allows
  • For more advanced builders with experience of photo-etch and super glue
  • For collectors who care about the utmost fidelity of a model

This is a photo-etched accessory, not an aircraft kit. The model, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is a photo-etched detail accessory with which you improve a plastic P-47 Thunderbolt model already built or under way. The aircraft model itself is not included in the package.

The thin metal parts have to be nipped out of the fret, bent over an edge and glued down with super glue (cyanoacrylate). That is why it suits more experienced modelers.

For more advanced modelers who want to complete a P-47N model with fine detail beyond what the plastic kit offers.
