ASP-3N sight for the aircraft models MiG-15, MiG-17, La-15 Scale 1:48 Metallic Details MDR48235

Metallic Details MDR48235 is a 3D-printed interior detail set for the ASP-3N gunsight in 1/48, intended for MiG-15, MiG-17, and La-15 aircraft model kits. A small cockpit sight is one of those parts that reads “overscale” quickly in plastic, so a fine 3D-printed replacement helps keep the frame and housing looking sharp under a clear canopy.

This is an aftermarket upgrade (the aircraft model kit is not included). Final fit is kit-dependent, so treat mounting points as adjustable to your chosen cockpit layout.

The ASP-3N sight is a cockpit component used on several early jet aircraft types. For a clean result, align it to the coaming and windscreen centerline rather than relying only on kit locating stubs (if present).

For modelers: test-fit the sight with the instrument panel, coaming, and windscreen in place (even if only taped) to confirm height and forward clearance. Paint the part before installation, then add a small gloss touch on the optics area if your reference calls for it. Use minimal adhesive so you don’t spill onto surrounding cockpit detail.

FAQ

Is this sight compatible with any 1/48 MiG-15, MiG-17, or La-15 kit?

It is intended as a universal upgrade for those subjects, but cockpit layouts differ by kit brand. Dry-fit and adjust the mounting point as needed.

When should I install the gunsight?

Add it after painting the cockpit and completing most handling in the tub, but before final canopy installation. A taped test-fit of the windscreen helps confirm position.

Do I need to prime 3D-printed resin parts?

Priming is commonly used to improve paint grip and to make small surface details easier to see before the final coat.
