About product

The thermally protected Mk.83 with MAU-91

This Reskit set completes a model under construction with Mk.83 bombs in the MAU-91 configuration, in the variant with a protective thermal layer. The four pieces come from the name of the item. It is not a standalone aircraft model but parts that are hung on a finished airframe at the very end of the work.

What the protective layer is for

The layer applied to the casing is meant to delay the moment at which the filling heats up in the event of a fire nearby. It comes into its own above all where ordnance is stored and moved in a confined space. For the modeler it is interesting because it changes the texture of the surface: instead of a smooth varnish, a fine grain is felt under the finger, which can be imitated on a model.

How to imitate the layer

The easiest way is to spray a primer, let it cure thoroughly and only then apply the covering shade from a greater distance, so that the paint grains slightly. A dry brush then draws the texture out into the light. The difference against the smooth bombs beside it will be apparent even in an ordinary photograph taken for a collection.

For which builds

  • Carrier aircraft being prepared for flight from a ship
  • Models with a multiple ejector rack full of bombs
  • Scenes with a trolley and handling personnel
  • Builders who enjoy working with surface texture

Degrease the parts before applying paint and let them dry thoroughly. Keep the suspension lugs on the upper side clean; the bomb will then sit on the carrier more precisely and without play.

FAQ

It is meant to slow the heating of the filling if a fire breaks out nearby. On a model it shows up mainly as a different surface texture from the smoothly painted version.

Applying the covering shade with an airbrush from a greater distance so that the paint grains slightly works well, and the texture can then be picked out with a dry brush.

No, these are stores in 1:72 scale. The aircraft is built separately by the modeler, who hangs these bombs on it at the end of the work.
