IBG 48U005 - 1:48 PZL M18 Dromader Water Discharge Hatch 3D Printed Set

PZL M18 Dromader water discharge hatch – 3D printed set in 1:48 scale

The IBG 48U005 set contains a water discharge hatch designed for PZL M18 Dromader aircraft models in 1:48 scale. The part is produced using advanced 3D printing technology, allowing very accurate reproduction of small structural details.

The PZL M18 Dromader was widely used as an agricultural aircraft and in many countries also served as a firefighting aircraft. A special water or fire retardant release system installed in the lower fuselage allowed the aircraft to quickly drop its load over a fire zone.

This accessory can be used as a replacement for kit components or as an upgrade to enhance the level of detail of the model.
