RESKIT RS32-0498 Mk.83 bombs with MAU-91 thermally protected (4 pcs) (3D printed) 1/32

RESKIT RS32-0498 is a highly detailed set of four Mk.83 bombs with attached MAU-91 arming lugs and realistic thermal protective covers in 1/32 scale. This is a category: 3D printed model – modelling accessory, made from high-quality resin using 3D printing technology. Thanks to this, the details are extremely precise, including the texture of the thermal sleeve, sharp panel lines, rivets, and subtle joins—everything you’ll find on an original combat bomb.

The Mk.83 bomb weighing 1,000 pounds was developed in the United States as part of the famous Mk.80 General Purpose Bomb series. The MAU-91 protected variant was widely used by the US Navy and NATO air forces, especially during carrier-based air operations, where prolonged exposure to sunlight and high temperatures required the use of special thermal covers for the safety of ground crews and equipment. This configuration of ordnance was used on aircraft such as the F/A-18 Hornet, F-14 Tomcat, F-15E Strike Eagle, and F-35.

Mk.83s with thermal protection have been in service since the 1970s, spanning the Cold War, Middle Eastern conflicts, and into the present day. These types of bombs are still mounted on combat aircraft of the US and its allies, used in both training and combat missions.
