First Look
ResKit from Ukraine produces a nice array of resin detail sets for a variety of popular subjects and scales. This set replicates the Matra Durandal runway cratering bomb used by a variety of air forces including the USAF as the BLU-107. The BLU-107 was employed during Desert Storm loaded on the F-111E.
This set includes four bomb airframes, four sets of fins, four sets of lugs, and arming stripes on decals.
If you're looking for a distinctive load-out option for your next project, see if the Durandal was employed on your subject, and if so, here's a great set for your consideration.
You can order this set with free shipping on HobbyZone USA's eBay store.
My sincere thanks to HobbyZone USA for this review sample!
