About product

Wheels for the Yakovlev Yak-25 Flashlight, Mandrake and Mangrove in 1:72 scale from Armory

A resin set of replacement landing gear wheels for 1:72 models of the Yak-25 and its derivatives. 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 a wheel under the weight of the aircraft. The manufacturer describes the set as universal; dry-fit the shape of the legs against your own kit. Check the contents of the set on the box.

The real subject

The Yak-25 was a Soviet twin-engine all-weather jet interceptor with its crew in tandem and a radar in the nose. Its landing gear is the distinctive feature: instead of the usual tricycle arrangement it has a tandem layout on the fuselage centerline, and outrigger wheels under the engine nacelles give it stability on the ground. That is exactly why the landing gear is such a conspicuous part of the silhouette on a model of this type. The family also produced a high-altitude reconnaissance version with a long straight wing and further reconnaissance aircraft that kept both the designation and the landing gear arrangement.

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 and do not snap off the small outrigger wheels
  • glue with super glue; cement for plastic will not bond resin
  • 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 Soviet jets of the 1950s and for anyone who wants the unusual tandem landing gear right. The small parts and the resin itself make this a set for the more experienced modeler.

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 a Yak-25 kit, or a derivative of it, that you already own.

Its main wheels sit in tandem on the fuselage centerline and outrigger wheels under the engine nacelles give it stability on the ground. It is an arrangement that rarely appears on fighters.

The manufacturer intends it for the whole family, because the derivatives kept the same landing gear arrangement. Even so, dry-fit the shape of the legs against your kit.

Cyanoacrylate super glue. Hold the small outrigger wheels with tweezers and apply the glue with a pin so that it does not flood the joint.
