Eduard 48265 P-26A/C Peashooter 1/48 HOBBY BOSS

The Eduard 48265 P-26A/C Peashooter upgrade set is specifically designed for the 1/48 scale plastic model by HOBBY BOSS. It is intended to enhance both the realism and the level of detail of the Boeing P-26A/C Peashooter fighter aircraft model, used by the United States of America during the interwar period and the early years of World War II.

The P-26 Peashooter is a lightweight fighter aircraft that made history as the first American all-metal monoplane fighter. The aircraft entered service in 1933 and formed the backbone of U.S. air defense until more advanced designs were introduced. It was used by, among others, the 17th Pursuit Group of the United States Army Air Corps, as well as units in China and the Philippines; it took part in the first skirmishes of World War II in the Pacific.

The Eduard set consists of top-quality photo-etched parts, ensuring excellent reproduction of cockpit details, equipment components, pilot seatbelts, and the instrument panel. The add-ons are made of brass sheet.

This product belongs to the category of photo-etched accessories for 1/48 scale plastic models, making it ideal for both intermediate and advanced modelers. Installing photo-etched elements requires delicacy and precision in gluing, which is why we rate the difficulty at 3/5. The accessories significantly add to the collector's value of the model and satisfaction from the finished project.
