About product

Quickboost 1:48 SEPECAT Jaguar GR.1/GR.1a - resin countermeasure dispensers (for the Airfix kit)

This item is not an aircraft model but a detail accessory: a set of resin countermeasure dispensers, that is, chaff and flare dispensers, for the British SEPECAT Jaguar GR.1/GR.1a ground-attack aircraft in 1:48 scale. The set is designed for the Airfix kit and is made under the Quickboost brand of the Czech company Aires. The Jaguar kit has to be obtained separately.

What the accessory is for

Countermeasure dispensers are an element of passive defense: they fire chaff reflectors against radar-guided missiles and infrared flares against heat-seeking ones. On the real Jaguar this is an installation in which the individual cartridges and their housings are clearly visible. Injected plastic handles this structure only to a limited extent in 1:48 scale, whereas a resin casting can capture sharper edges, deeper openings and finer surface detail. The result is a more faithful rear fuselage without the laborious scraping and drilling of the plastic parts from the box.

Recommended procedure with resin

  • Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water so that the mold release agent is removed and paint will hold.
  • Cut them from the casting block with a fine saw or a cutting disc; never snap them off.
  • Level the cut surface and sand it with respiratory protection: resin dust is harmful to health, and wet sanding with a respirator is ideal.
  • First try the fit dry on the fuselage and adjust the seating if needed, and only then glue.
  • Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate); glues intended for plastic will not join resin. Apply a primer before painting.

Who the accessory is for

For modelers who are building the Jaguar GR.1/GR.1a in 1:48 scale from the Airfix kit and want a more faithful installation of the countermeasure dispensers. Working with resin and the need for accurate seating of the parts make the set an accessory for more experienced modelers.

The accessory is supplied unpainted and is intended for a kit that is not included in the package. Glue, paints and other accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise. Use respiratory protection when sanding resin.

FAQ

Passive defense equipment on an aircraft. They fire chaff reflectors against radar-guided missiles and infrared flares against heat-seeking ones.

It is designed for the SEPECAT Jaguar GR.1/GR.1a kit by Airfix in 1:48 scale. The kit itself is not included in the package and has to be bought separately.

We rather recommend more experienced modelers. The resin parts have to be washed, cut from the casting block, sanded with respiratory protection and bonded with super glue, which takes a steady hand.
