Dassault Rafale Air Intakes for HobbyBoss kit (3D Printing) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0222 for Aircraft Model Kit

Aftermarket 3D printed accessory for aircraft scale model kits designed to reproduce the intake structures used on the Dassault Rafale.

This set supports accurate 1/48 scale aircraft model builds by refining the intake channel geometry and outer intake lips, areas that remain prominent on the finished aircraft.

The Rafale’s intake design blends smoothly into the fuselage and wing root, making the intake profile a noticeable part of the aircraft’s side view. Replacing simplified kit parts with dedicated components helps improve the depth and continuity of the intake trunking.

For modelers: dry-fit the intake parts with the fuselage halves before painting to confirm alignment. When finishing the intake interiors, apply thin paint layers to preserve the sharp intake edges produced by the 3D printed parts.
