About product

Six Mk 82 bombs in 1:72

The package adds American low-drag bombs of the five hundred pound weight class, and in a particular form: with a thermally protective layer on the body and with the conical MAU-93 tail unit. Six pieces are enough for a full load of external stores on one tactical aircraft in 1:72 scale or for filling multiple ejector racks.

The half-ton bomb and its thermal coating

The Mk 82 belongs to the Mk 80 family, which the US Air Force and Navy introduced in the nineteen-fifties and use to this day; its body became the basis for later guidance kits as well. The thermally protective layer came about as an answer to fires on deck: a coarse ablative coating delays the heating of the explosive and gives the crew time to act. On a model it is recognized precisely by its strikingly rough surface. The conical MAU-93 tail unit, by contrast, serves ordinary release from altitude, unlike the retarding surfaces meant for attack from low level.

A surface that calls for a matte coat

The rough texture of the coating needs a different approach from the smooth body of an ordinary bomb. Apply thin coats, so that the texture is not flooded, and choose a matte shade; gloss would optically swallow the roughness. Set the colored bands at the nose off with narrow masking tape. The hanging comes out more precisely if you mark the axis on the rack beforehand and seat all six pieces in one plane.

For which builds

  • models of American tactical aircraft from the Vietnam war onward
  • carrier machines with a load of bombs on multiple ejector racks
  • dioramas with an aircraft ready for takeoff
  • modelers who want a precisely determined type of tail unit

The bombs are meant to fill out a finished kit; filler, glue and paints do not come with the package.
