The set includes precisely reproduced wheels with type “b” weighted tyres, which feature a realistic flattened effect suggesting the weight of the aircraft on the ground, as well as extra thin hubcaps made of photo-etched parts (PE hubcaps). This set is manufactured using high-quality resin casting technology, ensuring outstanding detail fidelity, accurate tread pattern, tire texture, and every detail of the wheel disk.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: 1\/48 – ideal for the most popular B-29 kits available on the market\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eOperating country: United States of America\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality resin plus photo-etched (PE) parts for hubcap detailing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHistorical period: World War II (years of use 1944–1950)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eRecommended use: an excellent addition for B-29 Superfortress models in early configuration – a bomber aircraft used by the USAAF mainly in the Pacific campaign, e.g., during the bombing of Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Early production B-29 wheels had a distinctive hub shape and tire type reflected in this set, enabling the modeller to accurately reproduce the historical authenticity and structural differences between bomber versions. Flattened tyres not only improve the model’s visual appeal but also realistically render the technical aspects of the aircraft standing on a runway or carrier deck.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    Category: \u003cstrong\u003eresin detail set produced using casting and photo-etched parts\u003c\/strong\u003e.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    This set is highly recommended for both intermediate and advanced modellers who value detail authenticity and high-fidelity reproduction. The small number of parts makes assembly moderately straightforward – suggested difficulty level is 2\/5, though the fine photo-etched details require precise tools and a bit of experience. An essential upgrade for anyone building a realistic B-29 Superfortress model aiming for a professional finish and historical accuracy.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Armory Models","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54734982906190,"sku":"ARMAW48348","price":15.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/5149\/0638\/files\/67dc128982f5a2cfb30338fccaf20943.jpg?v=1755730737","url":"https:\/\/plastmodel.it\/en\/products\/68021-armory-models-aw48348-b-29-superfortress-early-production-wheels-w-weighted-tyre","provider":"Plastmodel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
