About product

Gun Turret P-61A Black Widow 1:48 (Quickboost)

A resin dorsal gun turret with cast machine guns for the American Northrop P-61A Black Widow night fighter in 1:48 scale. It is an aftermarket detail part that will replace the simplified plastic turret from the base kit, not a standalone airplane model.

The real subject

The Northrop P-61 Black Widow was an American twin-engine, twin-boom night fighter of the Second World War fitted with an onboard radar. The armament of the first production version, the P-61A, included a remotely controlled dorsal gun turret with four 12.7 mm machine guns; because of buffeting of the tail surfaces and a shortage of turrets, only some of the aircraft built carried it.

Tips for use and fitting

Resin parts call for more careful work than plastic: first wash them to remove mold release residue, separate them carefully from the casting block (the gate) and bond them with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Protect your airways while sanding and cutting small parts. Apply a primer before painting. Separate the machine gun barrels carefully, they are fragile; seat the turret on the fuselage spine only after matching the shape dry, and bring out the metal parts once painted.

Who the part is for

  • Modelers building the Northrop P-61A Black Widow in 1:48 scale
  • Anyone after an accurate dorsal gun turret with cast machine guns
  • Builders who want to replace the simplified plastic turret
  • Collectors of American Second World War night fighters

The part is supplied as a resin accessory, unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a resin detail part, an aftermarket accessory. The base kit has to be bought separately.

The part is shaped for the American Northrop P-61A Black Widow night fighter in 1:48 scale. We recommend checking the exact fit in a particular kit dry, because what the manufacturers offer differs.

No. The dorsal turret with four 12.7 mm machine guns was carried by only some of the P-61A aircraft built; on later machines it was often left out because of vibration of the tail surfaces.
