Quickboost QB72519 F4F-4 Wildcat exhaust for Airfix 1/72

The Quickboost QB72519 F4F-4 Wildcat exhaust upgrade set is a high-quality set of exhaust tips designed for the F4F-4 Wildcat aircraft model in the popular 1/72 scale, dedicated to modelers using the Airfix kit. The product is precisely cast from polyurethane resin, ensuring detailed and delicate reproduction of features that are often simplified or inaccurately rendered in the standard plastic exhaust parts included in the original model kit.

The F4F-4 Wildcat is an American carrier-based fighter aircraft that played a key role during World War II. Used by the United States Navy (US Navy) and the Royal Navy (Fleet Air Arm), Wildcats were actively employed in, among others, battles in the Pacific theater—such as the Battle of Midway and the Guadalcanal campaign—between 1941-1945. Thanks to its sturdy construction and effective armament, the Wildcat was the backbone of American carrier aviation in the early period of the war. The F4F-4 introduced improvements over previous variants, including a wing-folding mechanism and six machine guns.

• The set is intended for 1/72 scale models – perfectly fits the Airfix F4F-4 Wildcat kits.
• Parts made from high-quality resin, providing thin-walled exhaust pipes and increased detail compared to standard plastic parts.
• Components are easy to assemble; however, working with resin requires basic modeling skills—care when cutting and gluing is recommended.
• The set does not require modifications to the original kit aside from removing the plastic parts and replacing them with the resin alternatives.
• No metal barrels or extras included – the set contains only resin exhaust tips.
• We recommend using appropriate adhesives for resin and test-fitting the parts before final assembly.
