About product

Aires 1:72 P-47D Thunderbolt - wing gun bays

This set is a resin accessory in 1:72 scale, not a model in its own right. It renders the wing gun bays of a P-47D Thunderbolt plastic kit in detail, the inside of the bays as well as the hinged covers, which let you present the aircraft with the armament section open. The set is meant for experienced modelers who want to take the detail of the wings beyond the level of the molding from the box.

The real subject

The Republic P-47D Thunderbolt was an American heavy single-seat fighter and fighter-bomber of the Second World War. It was powered by a strong radial engine, had a rugged structure and heavy armament of .50 caliber machine guns housed in the wings. It was used over Europe and in the Pacific both as an escort fighter and as an attack aircraft against ground targets.

Building tips

This is a resin casting for advanced builders. First wash the parts to remove any mold release agent, cut the casting blocks off carefully and clean up the cut surfaces, always with your airways protected. It is bonded with super glue (cyanoacrylate); dry-fit the surfaces before you fix them. Paint the inner surfaces and bring them up before they are covered, while they are still easy to reach.

Who it is for

  • Modelers who want to show the gun bays in the wings open
  • Experienced builders used to working with resin and super glue
  • Collectors of American Second World War fighters in 1:72 scale
  • Anyone who wants to raise the realism of the wings of a P-47D

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted, as a resin set. The aircraft kit, glue, paints and other accessories are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is a resin aftermarket accessory that renders the open gun bays in the wings of your P-47D Thunderbolt kit in 1:72 scale in detail. The aircraft model itself is not included in the package.

For experienced modelers. Working with resin calls for cutting off the casting blocks, cleaning up and bonding with super glue.

Super glue (cyanoacrylate). Ordinary cement for plastic does not hold on resin.
