Eduard 48875 MiG-23BN F.O.D. 1/48 for TRUMPETER – Dedicated Detail Set for MiG-23BN Model (1/48 scale)

The Eduard 48875 MiG-23BN F.O.D. set in 1/48 scale is a high-quality set of photo-etched details dedicated to the Trumpeter MiG-23BN model. The product is intended for the Soviet MiG-23BN fighter-bomber aircraft model, the ground-attack version (strike-bomber) of one of the most recognizable jet aircraft of the Cold War. The MiG-23BN was widely used by Soviet forces and Warsaw Pact countries, and also exported to many countries in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa. MiG-23BN aircraft participated in conflicts such as the Iran-Iraq War (1980–1988), the war in Afghanistan, and numerous local conflicts in the Middle East. Produced since the early 1970s, it was mainly in use during the Cold War, up until the 1980s and, in some regions, into the 1990s.

Eduard 48875 consists of photo-etched metal parts designed primarily to reproduce the details of the F.O.D. system (Foreign Object Damage – intake cover and protection of the air intake system) in the Trumpeter model. Thanks to the top-quality stainless steel photo-etched sheets with precisely rendered details, you can bring your model to a whole new level of realism. All parts require delicate assembly and can significantly enrich the display of your mock-up, both “at rest” on an airfield and in diorama scenes. Additionally, the set features numerous BN-version specific details not available in the standard kit.
