About product

Wheels for the Sukhoi Su-7BKL — 1:48, a universal set, Armory

A set of resin cast wheels for 1:48 models of the Sukhoi Su-7BKL fighter-bomber. The manufacturer describes it as universal, that is, not tied to a single kit. The wheels matter especially on the BKL: this version received different landing gear from the rest of the Su-7 family, so wheels from the basic set do not fit it. The castings replace the plastic parts and have a sharper tread and a better-defined wheel rim. This is an accessory for a model, not an aircraft model.

The real subject

The Sukhoi Su-7BKL is a late strike version of the Soviet supersonic Su-7 fighter-bomber, known in the West under the reporting name Fitter-A. It was created so that the machine could operate from unpaved and poorer surfaces. It received wider, lower-pressure tires, and retractable skis that could be lowered below the level of the wheels were added to the main wheels; because of the stronger landing gear the gear bays had to be modified as well. The equipment also included takeoff assist rockets and a twin brake parachute. Thanks to them the BKL differs from the other Su-7s at first glance precisely in its landing gear.

Building and painting tips

  • Wash the castings in warm soapy water before gluing so that no mold release agent is left on them.
  • Cut the casting block off with a saw, level the remainder with a file and check the outline of the tire.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue) — polystyrene cement will not bond resin.
  • Dry-fit the seating on the landing gear leg and widen the hole for the axle with a pin vise if needed.

Who the set is for

  • Builders who want to replace the plastic kit wheels with a more accurate casting.
  • Modelers focused on landing gear detail and on the final stance of the model.
  • More experienced modelers who have already worked with resin.

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 BKL version was adapted for operation from unpaved surfaces and received wider, lower-pressure tires as well as modified gear bays. The wheels of an ordinary Su-7B are therefore not identical.

The manufacturer did not tailor it to a single kit. Even so, dry-fit the seating on the landing gear legs of your own kit and widen the diameter of the hole for the axle with a pin vise if needed.

Not stated by the manufacturer. The set is intended for the wheels; check the scope of the castings on the box.
