This latest release from Aires features a complete resin electronics bay for the Su 25K Frogfoot A from Trumpeter. 

This detail set includes;

  • 2 Resin electronics bays

  • 4 electronic bay doors

  • various boxes and detail items to fill the electronics bays.

The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free. The doors for the electronic bays are thin and beautifully ribbed and even have tiny rivets.  The boxes that go inside the two electronic bays fit well and contain rich detail including wiring and rivets detailing and side into the electronics bays from the backside.  Then there are further resin pieces that get added to the electronics bays to give them a rich delicate 3D look. 

You will be required to do some cutting on your kit to fit these parts and painting the individual resin parts before you install them into each electronics bay would be the best course of action.  

The big Su 25K Frogfoot A from Trumpeter would look stunning with the addition of these electronic bays.  The detailing on these is exceptional and will look amazing once painted and installed. 

You can purchase this and other fine resin detail items directly from Aires or from the many retailers that carry their products.  

I would like to thank Aires for providing me with this review sample.
