This latest release from Aires features a complete resin A-10A Thunderbolt II wheel bay set for the Hobbyboss kit.

This detail set includes;

  • Nose gear well

  • Main gear wells and landing gear pods

The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free.  As you can see in the photos these parts are detail rich.  

The A-10 is a very popular aircraft with the jet modelling crowd and this set covers the wheel well area beautifully and is well worth picking up for your next 1/48 Hobbyboss A-10 kit. 

You can purchase this and other fine resin detail items directly from Aires or from the many retailers that carry their products.  A list of some of those retailers can be found here.
