The B-17F Flying Fortress bomber played a key role in Allied operations during World War II – primarily in strategic raids over Germany. This Eduard set allows highly accurate reproduction of the complex wing flap mechanism, which is simplified or completely omitted in basic kits. Details such as ribs, levers, and structural reinforcements are replicated in miniature scale with photographic precision and realistic texture.

Assembly requires some experience – you'll need to cut openings in the base REVELL kit, as well as precisely bend and glue the brass sheets using cyanoacrylate or epoxy glue. The set does not include the plastic B-17F model – it must be purchased separately. A detailed, illustrated assembly instruction is included, guiding you step by step through the entire installation process.

Build difficulty level: 4/5 – recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers who wish to take the detail of their models to the next level.

This photo-etched set is an excellent choice for collectors and enthusiasts who care about authenticity and accurate reproduction of the original. It is perfect for building aviation dioramas and realistic aircraft replicas from World War II. The Eduard 72545 B-17F landing flaps available in our offer guarantees satisfaction with your work and a spectacular final result.
