Tupolev Tu-95 (Tu-142) Wheels set (weighted) Scale 1:72 ResKit RS72-0369 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RS72-0369 is a 1/72 wheels set (weighted) for the Tupolev Tu-95 and Tu-142. Produced as resin 3D printed parts, the set features defined hub structure and a subtle flattened contact area to represent the heavy aircraft at rest.

Aftermarket resin accessory designed for aircraft scale model kits.

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

On a 1/72 Bear build, the multi-wheel landing gear is a dominant visual feature. The weighted tire profile supports a realistic stance, while crisp hub relief helps retain detail after primer and light weathering on large-scale bomber projects.

For modelers: align each flattened section carefully during dry-fit and check the model on a flat surface before final bonding. Ensure all gear units sit evenly so the aircraft maintains a balanced and stable appearance (kit-dependent).

FAQ

What does "weighted" indicate for this set?

"Weighted" means the tires include a subtle flattened contact patch to simulate the aircraft resting on its landing gear. Position this area carefully during installation.

Are these wheels compatible with all 1/72 Tu-95 and Tu-142 kits?

The set is listed as Any / Universal for compatible 1/72 builds, but axle size and landing gear engineering differ between manufacturers. Test-fit before final assembly (kit-dependent).

How can I maintain even alignment on a large model?

During dry-fit, place the model on a flat surface and confirm all wheels touch evenly. Small adjustments before glue sets help maintain a balanced stance.
