Mk.84 Thermally Protected/BLU-117 with BSU-36/B Bombs (2 pcs) (AV-8B, F-14, F/A-18) (3D Printed) Scale 1:48 ResKit RS48-0525 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS48-0525 is a 3D printed Mk.84 Thermally Protected/BLU-117 with BSU-36/B Bombs Weapons Set (2 pcs) for 1/48 aircraft builds. This set highlights the raised thermal coating texture and the distinct tail unit shapes, which makes these large stores read more convincingly under a primer and paint finish.

Aftermarket resin accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits.

Highly detailed resin parts intended for accurate 1/48 scale aircraft models.

It helps when your project includes visible underwing stores and you want consistent symmetry between the pair, especially once stenciling and weathering are added (finish is kit- and project-dependent).

For modelers: keep seams and sanding minimal on textured areas; instead, focus cleanup on attachment points and tail edges. Test-fit on the pylon to confirm sway brace contact, and use a light primer coat so the thermal pattern stays defined.

FAQ

Do these bombs fit any 1/48 kit?

They are listed as Any / Universal, but pylon interfaces and sway brace spacing can be kit-dependent. Test-fit and adjust the mounting points before final glue.

How do I preserve the thermal coating texture during cleanup?

Avoid heavy sanding on the textured body. Limit cleanup to print contact points and tail edges, and use a light primer coat.

What is a simple way to keep the pair looking consistent?

Assemble and prime both bombs together, then compare alignment of the tail units and mounting points before painting so they match side by side.
