The Eduard 648026 MiG-21 wheels 1/48 set is a high-quality wheel kit designed for MiG-21 fighter aircraft scale models in the popular 1:48 scale. This product is intended for the most demanding modelers who seek faithful reproduction of details and realism in their models. The set components have been precisely replicated in resin, and the manufacturer – the renowned Eduard company – has ensured the fine finish of every part. The wheels feature detailed and realistic tread as well as construction details that clearly surpass the standard plastic parts found in basic kits.

The MiG-21, called the “Balalaika” by Soviet pilots, is one of the most iconic jet fighters of the Cold War era. The aircraft was developed by the USSR and served in the air forces of many countries around the world, including Poland, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, India, Egypt, and Vietnam. The MiG-21 was widely used from the late 1950s until the early 21st century in numerous armed conflicts such as the Vietnam War, Arab-Israeli wars, and the Indo-Pakistani war.
