Julien Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 US Aviation Armaments (48406) 1:48 ICM The Kit This is a new set from ICM which arrives on 4 sprues, it gives the modeller the following stores, 2 x LAU-10A Pods of 5" Rockets. 2 x LAU-69 Pods of 2.75" Rockets. 2 x LAU-68 Pods of 2.75" Rockets. 2 x BLU-23 500LB Fire bombs. (Can be made with or without the fins) 2 x BLU-27 750LB Fire Bombs. (Can be made with or without the fins) 2 x Mk.77 750LB Incendiary Bombs. 2 x SUU-14 Dispensers. 2 x Mk.81 Snakeye Bombs. 2 x MK.81 Low Drag Bombs. 2 x Mk.82 Snakeye Bombs. 2 x Mk.82 Low Drag Bombs. All of the above bombs can be fitted with Fuse extenders) In addition there are 2 MERs all with Sway braces. There are also what look to be 12 Flares to load on the MERs. All of the parts are well moulded and there are enough parts to give some additional detail to the weapons. Decals A decal sheet provides markings for all the weapons. The decals look nicely printed, in register with no issues. Conclusion This is a good looking set which will provide the modeller with a fair few USAF weapons types to hang under their model. I would have like to see more bombs included in the set though. Overall recommended. Available in the UK from importers H G Hannants Ltd.
