1:48 STORM SHADOW V.27 cruise missile

Storm Shadow V.27 cruise missile 1:48 (RESArm)

The set offers 3D-printed resin replicas of the Storm Shadow cruise missile in 1:48 scale. It is not an aircraft kit but an aftermarket accessory with which you load the pylon of a model you have already built and gain a faithful external store.

The real subject

Storm Shadow, known in its continental version as SCALP EG, is a British-French air-to-ground cruise missile for attacks on ground targets at long range. A number of modern tactical aircraft carry it; it has a characteristic angular body with folding wings.

Use and building tips

• Wash the uncured print resin residue off the parts and separate them from the print supports.
• Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate).
• Sand with respiratory protection, ideally wet.
• Apply a primer before painting; lift the flat gray shades with a light highlight on the surfaces.

Who the set is for

• Modelers building modern combat aircraft in 1:48 scale.
• Collectors who want accurate, finely detailed stores instead of the parts from the box.

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and the base model are not included in the package.
