Dassault Rafale Air Intakes for Revell/Academy kit (3D Printing) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0221 for Aircraft Model Kit

Aftermarket resin and 3D printed accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits, representing the air intake assemblies for the Dassault Rafale.

Detailed parts intended for accurate 1/48 scale aircraft models, focusing on intake channel depth and smoother internal geometry compared with simplified kit intake parts.

The Rafale features blended fuselage intake trunks that are clearly visible from the front quarter view of the aircraft. This replacement set helps improve the intake tunnel depth and the transition from the intake lip to the internal duct.

For modelers: test-fit the intake sections with the fuselage halves before painting. It is often easier to paint the inner duct surfaces first and then assemble the intake parts to maintain a smooth interior finish.

FAQ

Are these air intakes compatible with both Revell and Academy kits?

The set is designed for 1/48 Dassault Rafale kits from Revell and Academy. Minor adjustments may be required depending on the kit tooling.

What improvement do these intake parts provide?

The replacement parts help extend the intake channel and improve the transition from the intake lip to the internal duct.

When should the intake ducts be painted?

Painting the intake interior before final assembly helps keep the duct surfaces smooth and avoids difficult masking later in the build.
