Armory Models AW72415 BAC TSR.2 wheels w/ weighted tires, type “b” (GY) 1/72

The Armory Models AW72415 BAC TSR.2 wheels w/ weighted tires, type “b” (GY) set is a high-quality detail set in 1/72 scale, intended for BAC TSR.2 aircraft models. It is dedicated to advanced modelers who seek maximum realism and unique details in recreating the British Cold War strike aircraft. The product is made from resin, providing exceptionally faithful reproduction of details and textures unattainable with standard plastic kit parts.

The BAC TSR.2 was an advanced strike and reconnaissance aircraft, designed in the UK during the 1960s for operations in environments with intense anti-aircraft defenses. Although it never entered serial production due to costs and political considerations, the aircraft became renowned as one of the most innovative projects of British aeronautical engineering of its era.

The product does not include metal or photo-etched elements, focusing exclusively on resin-reproduced details.

We highly recommend this set for modelers building precise replicas of Cold War aircraft, British aviation enthusiasts, and anyone looking to make their BAC TSR.2 model stand out. The difficulty level is rated as 2/5 – requiring only minor sanding and fitting to the base model.
