Grumman F-14 (A,B,D) Tomcat Landing Gears with weighted Wheels set for Tamiya kit (Resin & 3D Printing) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0259 for Aircraft Model Kit

This aftermarket landing gear and weighted wheels set is designed for the Grumman F-14 Tomcat aircraft family, including the F-14A, F-14B, and F-14D variants. The set provides a detailed upgrade for aircraft scale model kits, improving the structure of the landing gear assembly and the realism of the wheels.

The components are produced using a combination of resin casting and high-resolution 3D printing. The set includes landing gear elements and realistically weighted wheels that replicate the appearance of tires under the aircraft’s weight, enhancing the overall realism of 1/48 scale aircraft model builds.

The F-14 Tomcat features a robust carrier-based landing gear system designed for operations from aircraft carriers. On scale models the landing gear and wheels are prominent structural elements when the aircraft is displayed on its landing gear.

For modelers: test-fit the landing gear parts with the wheel bays before painting. Carefully align the wheels so the flattened section sits naturally on the display surface.
