NOTES: | Resin |
This next set is quite welcome for those who like to build 1/72 Mirage III/5 kits. It is a weapons set that has quite a few bits on it. Starting with missiles, you have a pair of AIM-9B Sidewinders as well as a pair of Matra 550 Magic 2s. Both of these missiles include the pylons. Next we have a pair of CES-3 pylons for charring either a LAU-32 or LRF 4 rocket pod, both of which are included. A similar pylon is provided for either a Phimat, Barracuda 2 or Barrax pod. A ventral pylon with a pair of Alkan P65 adaptors is provided or you can simply attach STRIM bombs. Finally, there is a large JL 100 rocket pod and its CRP-18 pylons.
The resin casting for these parts is perfect and you are provided a full set of instructions including a very helpful drawing that shows just where each weapon/pylon combination is placed on the aircraft. It is a really great set and should be on the want list for any 1/72 Mirage III/5 builder.
