About product

BAC Lightning F.3/F.5/F.6/F.53/T.55 — exhaust nozzles (1:48, Reskit)

This is a resin detail set, not an aircraft model. The set replaces the plastic exhaust nozzles at the rear of the British BAC (English Electric) Lightning interceptor and is shaped for kits of this aircraft in 1:48 scale from Airfix. It corresponds to the late F.3, F.5 and F.6 versions, the export F.53 and the T.55 trainer. The casting captures the inside of the nozzles and the outer ring more finely than a split plastic part and there is no seam to clean up.

The real subject

The Lightning was a British supersonic Cold War interceptor with its Rolls-Royce Avon engines unusually stacked one above the other. The pair of nozzles at the rear is one of the visually exposed places on a model.

Use and fitting

  • Check that you are building a Lightning in 1:48 scale from Airfix — the set is shaped for exactly that kit.
  • Wash the parts in lukewarm water with detergent so that no mold release agent is left on the surface.
  • Cut the casting blocks off with a sharp scalpel or a fine saw, never break them off.
  • Sand the marks left by the supports down with respiratory protection, ideally wet.
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue — plastic cement does not hold on resin.

Who the set is for

For modelers building the Airfix Lightning who want to lift one of the most conspicuous details of the rear end. Working with resin assumes at least some basic experience.

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package. Use a respirator and ventilate when sanding resin.

FAQ

No. It is a resin detail set of exhaust nozzles. The base plastic Lightning kit has to be bought separately.

For BAC Lightning kits in 1:48 scale from Airfix, in the F.3, F.5, F.6, F.53 and T.55 versions. On kits from other makers the parts may need adjusting.

Wash them free of mold release agent, cut the casting blocks off with a sharp scalpel, sand them with respiratory protection and glue with cyanoacrylate glue.
