Eduard LööKplus collection – a LööK set and Brassin sets in one package

LööKplus is a collection set built around a LööK set (a pre-painted instrument panel made using Brassin technology and steel seatbelts), supplemented with several resin and 3D-printed Brassin accessories – such as wheels, seats, exhaust stacks or cockpit parts.

These accessories are designed as a replacement for the kit's plastic components; the 3D-printed parts have no mould-parting lines, and the pre-painted instrument panel is ready to fit straight out of the package. Cyanoacrylate glue is recommended for fixing them.

About the aircraft – Republic P-47N Thunderbolt:

The Republic P-47N was the long-range version of the Thunderbolt fighter, developed for the vast theatre of operations in the Pacific. It received an enlarged wing with built-in fuel tanks, which significantly increased its range and allowed it to escort B-29 bombers on long flights over Japan.

Like other Thunderbolts, the P-47N was famous for its enormous airframe ruggedness, heavy gun armament and powerful Pratt & Whitney R-2800 radial engine. It was the heaviest and longest-ranged variant of the family.
