(yet) More fast jet fixes from Galaxy Model in 1/48th scale...

No, we are not advertising for Galaxy Model. Yes, they sure do have a lot of interesting stuff coming out, and they seem to be releasing a little detail day by day. So today we look at their latest enhancements. Afterburner exhaust nozzles in 3D printed resin in 48th scale, in our preview...


Preview: Galaxy Models new afterburner exhaust nozzles in 48th scale.
From Galaxy Models
1/48th scale
Release date: TBA (soon)
After last week's reveal of the excellent looking fast jet modern pilots, plus yesterday's release of new bases, groundcrew & Viper's seat in 48th scale. Today we see more fast jet fixes from Galaxy Model in 1/48th scale.

New today are a plethora of afterburner exhaust nozzles from different aircraft. Not only afterburner nozzles, but rear end plugs of that is your preference.

The first sets are for the F-35A, the most powerful jet engine fit to a modern fighter aircraft, in 48th scale. This fist one is closed for display on the deck or at rest or at low speed flight.
The afterburner lit variant is also offered in 3D printed resin.
The second new set is for the ChengDu J-20 Mighty Dragon in 3D printed resin, 1/48th scale. There are a choice of two sets - Fully open showing the aircraft in Afterburner...
And the closed option, showing the kite either at a lower speed or on the ground...
The Viper gets a run also, with the ejection seat we looked at yesterday added to with two F-16 engine types in open or closed settings. First, the General Electric F110 in closed state.
And the fully opened AB nozzles lit...
The Pratt & Whitney F100 is also depicted, both in closed state  (of course again printed in 3D resin)...
Also supplied is the alternate, with the cans fully open at speed or take off...

We do not know the release dates of these just yet, but when we do we will let you know more. Until then, use the links below to find them closer to you!
