Quickboost QB48536 Mirage III Gun Barrels Eduard / Hobby Boss 1/48

The Quickboost QB48536 Mirage III Gun Barrels upgrade set is a high-quality accessory designed for Mirage III fighter jet models in 1/48 scale, compatible with kits from Eduard and Hobby Boss. These are precisely crafted resin gun barrels that replace the plastic parts from the original kits, enhancing the realism and level of detail of the finished model.

The Mirage III is a French supersonic fighter designed by Dassault Aviation, introduced into service in the second half of the 1950s and widely used during the Cold War up through the 1980s. The aircraft was operated by the air forces of France, Israel, Australia, Switzerland, South Africa, Peru, and several other countries. It is notably remembered for its involvement in Middle Eastern conflicts, including the Six-Day War and the Yom Kippur War. The Mirage III's armament consisted of a pair of DEFA 30mm cannons, whose details can be accurately represented thanks to this Quickboost set.

The barrels are made from high-quality resin, which offers exceptional crispness of detail and perfect reproduction of the real shapes. They provide remarkable precision that standard plastic barrels in the original kits cannot match. This allows for a realistic appearance of the armament, which is especially important for displaying models in dioramas or at modeling contests.
