About product

Eduard Brassin R-3S / AA-2 Atoll-A (1:48)

This set from the Czech manufacturer Eduard brings, in 1:48 scale, resin short-range air-to-air guided missiles R-3S (NATO code AA-2 Atoll-A) with APU-13 launch rails. It is not an airplane kit but a weapons detail set with which you arm a model of a Soviet fighter, for example the MiG-21. The package usually holds castings of the missiles, the rails, photo-etched parts for small items and decals. The transparent front of the seeker head is usually in clear resin, so you can choose either a covered or an exposed sensor.

The real subject

The R-3S was an infrared-guided short-range missile, the Soviet answer to the American Sidewinder. Among the armament of Eastern Bloc fighters it was one of the most widespread weapons of its category and is a typical item under the wings of Cold War MiGs.

Usage tips

Wash the mold release residue off the resin parts, cut off the casting blocks and sand the surfaces gently with your airways protected. Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Finish the missiles in the colors matching the decal markings; the clear head is masked at the very end.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of Soviet Cold War fighters
  • Modelers who want faithful underwing stores
  • More experienced builders used to resin
  • Collectors who care about period-correct weapons

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted, as a resin detail set. Glue and paints are not included in the package.
