The MK.82 bomb was developed in the United States in the mid-1950s as a universal general-purpose bomb. The version equipped with the BSU-49 retardation system was especially widely used during the Vietnam War as well as in later conflicts—up to modern times. The deployable BSU-49 fins allowed for safe low-altitude bomb drops without risking damage to the carrier aircraft from the blast.

The RESKIT RS72-0348 set is ideal for upgrading models of American fighters, attack aircraft, and bombers from the Cold War and beyond, such as the F-4 Phantom II, A-7 Corsair II, F-16 Fighting Falcon, F-111 Aardvark, and many other machines that took part in conflicts from the 1960s through the 21st century. This set offers an exceptional level of detail unattainable with standard plastic model kits.

Assembly difficulty level: 2/5. The set is recommended both for intermediate and experienced modelers working with resin. Perfect for diorama enthusiasts and modelers building replicas of contemporary combat aircraft. We recommend the use of precise modelling tools and appropriate resin adhesives.

We recommend this product to all modelers who wish to increase the realism of their projects and to collectors of military models interested in recreating authentic American aerial ordnance from the 1960s to the present day.
