About product

Wheels for the Sukhoi Su-17 and Su-22 Fitter — 1:48, Armory

A set of resin cast wheels for 1:48 models of the Sukhoi Su-17 and the export Su-22 fighter-bombers. The manufacturer specifies it for any kit of this type, so it is not tailored to a single product. The castings replace the plastic kit wheels; they have a sharper tread pattern and a wheel rim without a mold parting line, which shows on the landing gear even after painting. This is an accessory for a model, not an aircraft model.

The real subject

The Sukhoi Su-17 grew out of the older Su-7 and differs from it in a wing with variable geometry of the outer panels. It let the aircraft handle takeoff and landing better and carry a heavier combat load, while the fuselage and the fighter-bomber concept stayed close to its predecessor. Export machines carried the Su-22 designation and differed in equipment and powerplant; in the West the reporting name Fitter is used for the whole family. The Su-17 and the Su-22 belonged for decades to the main strike equipment of the Soviet Air Force and its allies.

Building and painting tips

  • Wash the castings in warm soapy water; mold release residue would stop the paint from holding.
  • Cut the casting block off with a saw and level the contact surface so that the model stands straight.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue); liquid cement for plastic has no effect here.
  • Paint the wheel rim and the tire separately and mask the transition with masking tape or masking fluid.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers bothered by the mold seam and the flat tread of plastic kit wheels.
  • Builders who want the model to sit convincingly on its landing gear.
  • More advanced modelers — resin is cut and sanded, it does not shape like plastic.

This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The manufacturer specifies it that way, but the result is not guaranteed. Dry-fit the seating on the landing gear legs of your kit and widen the hole for the axle with a pin vise if needed.

The Su-22 is the export designation of machines in the same family; they differed in equipment and powerplant. The landing gear is close on both, which is why the set is intended for both.

It is not. The set contains resin wheels that replace the plastic parts. The model has to be built from a kit.
