Aires continues its prolific release schedule with a number of recent releases in 1/48 scales.

All the sets are perfectly cast in grey resin. The cockpit sets are all made up from a minimum of parts but detail is not compromised, even in this small scale. Tiny details and undercuts are cast as part of the one-piece cockpit, while harness straps, instruments and truly tiny details are provided on the included photo-etched frets. Printed acetate sheets are also supplied with the cockpit sets.

The exhaust sets are equally well detailed.

This month's releases include the following:

Aires 4342 - Harrier Gr. Mk.7 Cockpit Set

Aires 4366 - Hawker Typhoon Mk. IB Car Door Cockpit

Aires 4384 - Mitsubishi F-2A/B Wheel Bays

Aires 4386 - Hawker Sea Hawk Wheel Bay for Trumpeter

Aires 4387 - F-16C Falcon Block 25/32 Exhaust Nozzle

Thanks to Aires for the review samples
