The bomber entered service with the USAAF in 1944. It was mainly used in the Pacific, where it carried out strategic raids on Japan. The most famous episode was the atomic bomb missions over Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945. The B-29 also served after the war, including during the Korean conflict.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe Armory Models AW72355 set allows you to replace the standard, often simplified plastic wheels with ultra-detailed resin counterparts—featuring precise tread, realistic tyre “weight” on flat surfaces, as well as metal hubcaps made using photo-etching techniques. This set turns your model into a miniature original—emphasizing both the detail and the weight of the real machine.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis product is recommended both for advanced modelers and ambitious intermediate aviation enthusiasts who want to take the realism of their model to the next level. This upgrade provides an excellent effect with weathering techniques. The quality of workmanship and compatibility with most B-29 models in 1\/72 scale make it an investment in a satisfying result.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e resin detail-up set, accessories for plastic models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAssembly difficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\nThe Armory Models AW72355 set is an essential choice for modelers seeking realism, detail, and historical accuracy for B-29 Superfortress bomber models from World War II and the postwar years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Armory Models","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54734996668750,"sku":"ARMAW72355","price":9.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/5149\/0638\/files\/a9cd59968ec3cb59fdc9725740251d34.jpg?v=1755731173","url":"https:\/\/plastmodel.com\/de\/products\/68396-armory-models-aw72355-b-29-superfortress-early-production-wheels-w-weighted-tyre","provider":"Plastmodel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
