RESKIT RS48-0315 M272 - 2 RAIL LAUNCHER FOR HELLFIRE MISSILES (2 PCS) 1/48

RESKIT RS48-0315 M272 is a high-quality detail set designed for demanding 1/48 scale aircraft modelers. This product from the renowned manufacturer RES/KIT consists of two highly detailed M272 launchers intended for mounting AGM-114 Hellfire guided missiles, which are widely used on many modern combat platforms.

• Category: Modeling accessories, resin detail set
• Scale: 1/48 – ideal for modern attack helicopters and ground-attack aircraft
• Material: Precisely cast resin – ensures excellent detail fidelity, fine panel lines, and distinct textures
• Kit contents: The set includes two pieces – a complete pair of double launchers for Hellfire missiles

The M272 launcher was developed to carry and fire AGM-114 Hellfire – modern air-to-ground anti-tank guided missiles. Widely used by the United States armed forces and NATO allies mainly from the late 1980s to the present day. These systems were mounted, among others, on legendary attack helicopters such as the AH-64 Apache, AH-1 Cobra, and heavy unmanned aerial vehicles like the MQ-9 Reaper, seeing action in conflicts such as Operation Desert Storm, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and counterterrorism operations in the 21st century.

The RESKIT RS48-0315 set stands out for its extraordinary attention to historical and technical detail, realistically reproducing the mounting segments, cabling, and characteristic structural reinforcements—at a level rarely encountered in standard plastic kits. It features ease of assembly and compatibility with most 1/48 scale helicopter and aircraft models.

I rate the assembly difficulty level at 2/5 – the set is dedicated both to intermediate and experienced modelers who wish to increase the realism of their models without complicated processing. It is a perfect choice for fans of aircraft modeling interested in the precise recreation of details in modern NATO combat machines.

I highly recommend this product to all enthusiasts of realistic scale modeling who expect top quality and want to faithfully replicate modern helicopter and aircraft armament in their dioramas and collections.
