About product

Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk wheel set 1:72 — resin wheel set 1:72 (Reskit)

A resin wheel set for the Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk in 1:72 scale. The set is intended for the F-117 Nighthawk. This is not an airplane kit but an accessory that replaces the plastic wheels of the kit with a more faithful casting. The maker is the Ukrainian firm Reskit.

What the set is for

A resin wheel is usually more accurate in shape than a plastic part — it keeps its circular form and has a sharp tire tread and a clean rendering of the rim and the hub. The tire is usually cast with a slight flattening at the contact point that imitates the load of a parked aircraft. Check the axle diameter and the mounting on your own kit.

The real subject

The Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk was the first production combat aircraft with reduced radar signature (stealth); it has an airframe built for the attack role, with faceted surfaces.

Usage tips

These are resin castings. Wash the parts in soapy water to remove any mold release agent, separate the wheels from the casting block with a fine saw and sand the area flat. They are bonded with super glue (cyanoacrylate); cement for plastic does not bond resin. Protect your airways while sanding.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want to replace the plastic wheels with a more faithful resin part.
  • Modelers building the Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk in 1:72 scale who want to improve the landing gear.
  • Intermediate and advanced modelers willing to work with resin and super glue.

The set is supplied as unpainted resin castings. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
