About product

Wheels for the Ilyushin Il-28 Beagle in 1:72 scale from Armory

A resin set of replacement landing gear wheels for a 1:72 model of the Il-28 bomber. This is not an airplane kit but an accessory for a model you already own. According to the manufacturer the tires are cast as weighted, with a flattened contact patch like the one a wheel takes under the weight of the aircraft. The manufacturer describes the set as universal; dry-fit the shape of the landing gear legs against your own kit. Check the contents of the set on the box.

The real subject

The Il-28 was the first Soviet jet bomber built in large numbers. It had a straight wing, two engines in nacelles underneath it, a crew of three and a tail gun position with a pair of cannons, a solution that still followed the postwar idea of how a bomber should defend itself. It entered service in the early 1950s, flew in reconnaissance and training versions and was widespread in a number of allied countries; it was also built under license in China. Its long service and varied camouflage schemes make it a popular subject, and worn landing gear shows off well on it.

Use and building tips

  • wash the parts in warm soapy water to remove any mold release residue
  • cut the casting blocks off with a saw, do not snap them
  • glue with super glue; cement for plastic will not hold here
  • sand wet and with respiratory protection
  • glue the wheel on last and turn the flattened patch toward the ground

Who the set is for

For builders of postwar jets who find the tread on the plastic wheels too soft, and for diorama builders with a parking apron. Working with resin calls for super glue and careful cleaning of the parts.

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

No. It is an accessory that replaces the plastic landing gear wheels in an Il-28 kit you already own.

The manufacturer describes it as universal. The shape and diameter of the landing gear legs differ between kits, so dry-fit the parts before gluing.

It is cast with a flattened contact patch, like the one a wheel takes when it stands under the weight of the aircraft, so the model does not sit on perfectly round wheels.

Do not spray it black but a matte dark gray; pure black looks flat on a model. Add dust and mud with pigments at the very end.
