AV-8B Harrier II Plus
Landing Gear

Rockit Studio, 1/48 scale

Reviewed by Brett Green

Newcomer in the aircraft accessory business Rockit Studio has released a 1/48 scale AV-8B Harrier II Plus landing gear set for the UMA kit. Main wheels, nose wheel and outrigger undercarriage are included.

The set comprises 33 parts in grey coloured 3d printed resin, eight metal tubes of various diameter, four clear 3d printed parts, one brass part and one clear acetate die-cut film.

The landing gear legs are supplied with locating tabs printed in place, which should make installtion fast, precise and easy.

Hydraulic lines are also printed in place.

Struts are represented by stainless steel tubes cut to size.

This will ensure a robust landing gear.

This is an impressive feat of design and technology.

The landing gear legs have the usual 3D printed attachment points, narrowing as they come closer to the actual parts. This is a fast and easy cleanup.

The wheels look great with radial tread and raised lettering on the tyre sidewalls. They are weighted too.

Wheel hubs are separate parts, making painting easier.

Detail on all parts is crisp and comprehensive.
