Douglas A-4 Skyhawk late version Wheels set Scale 1:72 ResKit RS72-0130 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS72-0130 is a 3D printed resin wheels set for 1/72 Douglas A-4 Skyhawk late version builds. The focus is on refined hub structure and a more defined tire profile suited to later-production airframes, helping the compact landing gear area look sharper under close inspection.

Aftermarket resin accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits.

Highly detailed resin parts intended for accurate 1/72 scale aircraft models.

On the A-4, the main wheels sit prominently under the wing roots, making hub depth and rim edges noticeable even in 1/72. Replacing simplified kit parts can improve the overall stance and visual balance of the model.

For modelers: confirm axle size and gear leg alignment before painting. Apply a thin primer coat to preserve small hub details, paint hubs and tires separately, and dry-fit both mains on a flat surface to ensure an even sit before final assembly (kit-dependent).
