Eduard 648323 Matra R-550 Magic 2 1/48 – Brassin Missile Set

Eduard 648323 Matra R-550 Magic 2 in 1/48 scale is an advanced resin set from the renowned Brassin series, designed for demanding aircraft modelers. The product is dedicated to models of modern French and international aircraft, adding incredibly realistic weaponry in the form of the famous Matra R-550 Magic 2 air-to-air missiles. This type of missile was widely used by the air forces of France and other countries such as India, Egypt, Libya, Taiwan, and Qatar from the early 1980s up to the present day. The Magic 2 saw combat use in conflicts such as the Gulf War, as well as operations over Kosovo and the Middle East.

The Eduard Brassin 648323 set contains as many as 28 precisely crafted resin parts, providing exceptional detail for the missiles and their underwing adapters. The manufacturer has included a full set of decals, photo-etched details that allow for the replication of the most delicate components such as fins or mounts, as well as dedicated masks for precise painting. All parts are made from the highest quality resin and metal elements, ensuring superb reproduction of surface detail, panels, and rivets.

The product is intended for plastic modelers and hobbyists at intermediate and advanced levels (difficulty rating: 3/5). The set requires skills in working with resin and photo-etched parts, allowing for an impressive final effect on models such as the Mirage 2000, Mirage F1, or any others compatible with Magic 2 armament.
