This product is an excellent addition to plastic model kits, significantly enhancing their realism thanks to detailed Schürzen-type side skirts.

The M2/M3 Bradley is an American infantry fighting vehicle in service since the 1980s, widely used by the US Army, including during Operation Desert Storm in 1991, Iraq 2003, and conflicts in Afghanistan. Schürzen-type side skirts are used to improve the vehicle's protection against shaped charge projectiles and shrapnel, and their accurate reproduction is a key element of realism for modelers specializing in armored vehicles.

This E.T. Model set has been developed with attention to every detail – the photo-etched sheets are thin, accurately replicate the original side armor design, and assembly ensures compatibility with Meng kit mountings. The set allows you to assemble complete side skirts including details such as mountings, handles, and brackets, exceeding the level of detail in most standard plastic kits. Please note: this set does not include the plastic model itself; it is an advanced supplementary accessory.

We recommend this product for intermediate and advanced modelers (assembly difficulty level: 4/5) who want to raise their Bradley IFV model to a professional display standard. It is the perfect choice for military modeling enthusiasts and fans of contemporary armored technology. Photo-etched sheets require precision, experience in handling small components, and proper tools, but the final result more than compensates for the assembly effort involved.

By choosing the E.T. Model E35-224, you are investing in the quality and historical accuracy of your US Army M2/M3 Bradley IFV model.
