Aviation Workshop has released a 1/48 scale CLBS-100 practice bomb dispenser. The parts are crisply moulded in very pale yellow resin.

Each dispenser contains 4 x 4lb practice bombs moulded in position. Two dispensers are supplied.

The CLBS-100 is a common fit on RAF Buccaneers, Jaguars, Hawk and Harrier aircraft from the early 1970s onwards. The parts have a small amount of residual resin flash from the casting block that is easily removed with a sharp hobby knife.

This set is produced to a very high standard and allows for some additional detail that is not supplied in the Airfix or Classic Airframes kits.

Assembly should be straightforward with no modification required of the kit plastic required.  Modellers with very little modelling skills should easily be able to install this detail set.

This is a very nice supplement to the applicable kits and will look very realistic when fully assembled and painted.

Thanks to The Aviation Workshop for the review sample
