Description
Metallic Details MDR4824 is a mixed-media landing gear detailing set for the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird in 1/48, recommended for Testors and Italeri kits. It includes parts for the central and front landing gear area to refine the structure around the wheel bays and improve the definition of the gear components.
The SR-71’s tall stance and exposed bay geometry make the gear area easy to notice, especially on a clean underside finish. This set concentrates on the elements that add depth and “busy” structure: bay detail, struts, wheels, and door parts, while keeping the upgrade focused on the forward/center sections listed by the manufacturer.
For modelers: treat this as a fit-and-alignment upgrade—dry-fit wheel bays, struts, and doors together before paint to confirm clearances and door angles. Paint and weather bays first, then add struts and wheels, and install doors last to avoid handling damage and to keep edges sharp.

FAQ
Does the set cover the entire landing gear system?
It is specified for the central and front landing gear areas. Check your kit plan to see which assemblies you want to upgrade and in what order.
Should I paint bays before installing the struts?
Yes—painting and finishing the wheel wells first usually makes access easier. Add struts and wheels after the bay work is complete, then place doors last.
How can I keep door angles consistent on both sides?
Use a simple spacer or a marked reference line while glue cures, and compare left/right angles from the front and side views before final bonding.
