About product

The Sky Shadow pod in 1:48 scale from Eduard

A resin add-on set with a replica of the Sky Shadow electronic countermeasures pod for models of combat aircraft in 1:48 scale. The casting carries the fine surface structure, covers and antennas that injected plastic usually cannot render with matching sharpness. The set is an addition to the external stores, not a model in its own right. Compare the extent of the package with the illustration on the box before buying.

The real subject

Sky Shadow is a British electronic warfare pod, that is a device in an aerodynamic casing carried under the aircraft whose task is to jam air defense radars. It was used on Royal Air Force combat aircraft, above all in connection with the Panavia Tornado, and formed a pair with a towed decoy pod on the opposite side of the airframe. From a modeler's point of view it is a prominent elongated store with characteristic antenna covers.

Building and painting tips

Wash the casting in lukewarm soapy water, cut the casting block off with a saw and sand the area down so that the pod seats on the pylon without a gap. It is bonded with super glue, which gives only a short time to position it, so try the position dry first and mark it. It is practical to paint the pod separately and fit it only to the finished model, which saves you masking the airframe. Work through a primer, which will also reveal any small bubbles in the casting. Choose the color scheme and the markings according to the documentation for the particular machine.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of Royal Air Force combat aircraft models in 1:48 scale
  • Modelers who want more accurate stores than the ones from the box
  • Those interested in a faithful addition to the electronic warfare fit
  • Those with experience of resin and super glue

This is a resin add-on set, not a model. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

It is an electronic warfare device carried under the aircraft whose task was to jam air defense radars.

It is not. The set holds only a replica of the external pod for a model in 1:48 scale that you already own.

The manufacturer does not state the number of parts. Check it against the illustration on the box.

Best of all on a finished and varnished model. You paint it separately and avoid masking the airframe.
