Armory Models AW48322 F-117A Nighthawk wheels w/ weighted tyres 1/48 – resin wheel set for aircraft

The offered product Armory Models AW48322 F-117A Nighthawk wheels w/ weighted tyres 1/48 is a high-quality resin detail set intended for the F-117A Nighthawk aircraft models in 1/48 scale. The product allows for an accurate reproduction of the characteristic wheels with deformation effects under the aircraft's weight, which greatly enhances the realism of the final model.

The F-117A Nighthawk is an American, single-seat, subsonic multirole stealth attack aircraft, designed with stealth technology in mind. The aircraft served in the United States Air Force from the 1980s until 2008 (Cold War period and the first years of the 21st century). It participated in numerous operations, including Desert Storm (Persian Gulf War, 1991) and Allied Force (Kosovo, 1999).

The presented detail set AW48322 is especially useful for modelers striving for the highest replication of details. The tires with realistic weighted effect are made of resin, which allowed for precise reproduction of the tread pattern, rim edges, and subtle tire deformation—mimicking the appearance of the wheel when the aircraft is stationary on the airfield.
