Description
The Metallic Details Lockheed U-2A/C Air Brakes Detailing Set is a precision aftermarket upgrade created to accurately reproduce the early-generation air brake assemblies fitted to U-2A and U-2C high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft in 1:48 scale.
Produced using high-resolution 3D-printed resin technology, this set focuses on correct scale thickness, hinge geometry, and surface definition of the air brakes—an essential control feature on the long-winged U-2 during approach and landing. It is particularly suitable for modelers depicting early Cold War U-2 variants in landing or ground-servicing configurations.
This product belongs to the Aircraft Aftermarket Accessories range and is manufactured by Metallic Details, a brand specializing in technically accurate resin and photo-etched upgrades for scale aircraft models.
Attention! The aircraft model kit is not included. This product contains only the air brakes detailing set.
