Eduard 48806 Su-2 landing flaps 1/48 ZVEZDA – Photo-etched Flap Set for the Soviet Su-2 Bomber Model

Eduard 48806 Su-2 landing flaps 1/48 ZVEZDA is a high-quality set of photo-etched flaps designed for the scale 1/48 Su-2 bomber model produced by Zvezda. Eduard’s precisely engineered photo-etched parts bring detailing and authenticity to a higher level, allowing modelers to accurately replicate the complex flap mechanisms and the texture of their surfaces—features that are difficult to achieve with standard plastic kit parts.

• Material: Thin, photo-etched stainless steel
• Product category: Photo-etched add-on set for plastic models
• Original aircraft country of use: Soviet Union (USSR)
• Historical period: Second World War (1939–1945) – the Su-2 was used mainly in the early years of the conflict on the Eastern Front

The Su-2 was a Soviet light bomber and reconnaissance aircraft designed by the Polikarpov team in the late 1930s. During World War II, it played an important role early in Operation Barbarossa, flying combat, reconnaissance, and ground support missions. Its multi-panel flaps, complex carbon structure, and fabric-covered surfaces made it an interesting aircraft to model, but also required advanced finishing components.

The Eduard 48806 set includes precisely cut photo-etched parts that allow for an accurate recreation of the Su-2’s flap construction in the model. Assembly requires delicate bending and fitting of small elements, which significantly increases the realism of the replica. The set includes a clear illustrated instruction manual that makes it easier to correctly install all components.

This product is especially recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers looking to recreate a Su-2 model with the utmost attention to detail. The set enables you to make highly realistic flap mechanisms, enhancing the display value of your model—especially at competitions or exhibitions.

• Assembly difficulty level: 4/5 – requires experience with photo-etched parts and metal bending tools
• Product advantages: enhances model realism and is dedicated to precision enthusiasts
