1:48 CENTERLINE MULTI WEAPON PYLON FOR F-105

Centerline multi weapon pylon for the F-105 Thunderchief 1:48 (Reskit)

This resin, 3D-printed accessory from the Reskit brand represents the centerline (under-fuselage) multi weapon pylon for models of the American F-105 Thunderchief fighter-bomber in 1:48 scale. It makes it possible to hang various armament or pods on a model faithfully. It is not a complete aircraft kit but a separate item of equipment.

The real subject

The F-105 Thunderchief was an American supersonic fighter-bomber from Republic, widely deployed in the Vietnam War, where it carried a heavy bomb load. The centerline multi weapon pylon is one of the key elements of its combat configurations and on a model it tends to be simplified.

Usage tips

Wash the print resin residue off the part, separate it from the print supports and glue it with super glue. Apply a primer before painting; do the sanding with respiratory protection. 3D printing captures the small details of the attachment more faithfully than injection-molded plastic.

Who the part is for

• Modelers building the F-105 Thunderchief in 1:48 scale
• Those interested in a faithful external load and combat configuration
• Builders used to resin parts
• Collectors of American equipment of the Vietnam era

This is an add-on part, not a complete model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
