Eduard 491480 A-4M mod. 1975 MAGIC FACTORY in 1/48 scale is a high-quality photo-etched detail set dedicated to the plastic model of the A-4M Skyhawk fighter-attack aircraft from 1975 (model manufacturer: Magic Factory). This model represents an American carrier-based combat aircraft used by the United States Navy during the Cold War. The A-4M version was developed with the United States Marine Corps (USMC) in mind, participating in numerous armed conflicts in the 1970s and 1980s, renowned for its compact design and significant combat capabilities.

The Eduard 491480 set is made from precisely cut photo-etched metal, enabling very realistic, thin, and detailed elements that cannot be achieved using standard plastic parts.

• Photo-etched cockpit parts: detailed instrument panels, side panels, pedals, and control details provide authentic interior
• Pilot's seatbelts made from specially colored photo-etched metal
• External details: handles, structural components, hinges and covers improve the model’s detail level
• Thin and precisely made parts that replace plastic components for maximum realism
• Compatibility: ideal for the A-4M Skyhawk Magic Factory model (1/48 scale)

Eduard 491480 belongs to the category of photo-etched sets for scale models. The product is intended for modelers with some experience – it requires precision during assembly and working with delicate parts. It significantly enhances the level of finish of both the cockpit interior and the model’s external areas; the end result is highly professional and will satisfy even demanding enthusiasts of military aviation from the Cold War period.

We particularly recommend this set to intermediate and advanced modelers who want to ensure the highest level of detail in their A-4M aircraft – especially when building realistic thematic dioramas and display models.
Assembly difficulty: 4/5.
