This product is a high-quality upgrade set that allows you to replace the standard kit parts with a more accurately reproduced and precisely made air brake. The part is cast from top-quality resin, providing a much higher level of detail than the original plastic parts.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\/48\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of use:\u003c\/strong\u003e United Kingdom (RAF – Harrier GR.1\/GR.3), United States (USMC – AV-8A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e high-quality resin\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e KINETIC Harrier GR.1, GR.3, AV-8A kits in 1\/48 scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e modeling accessories, resin model upgrade set\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHistorical period:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cold War; aircraft introduced into service from the late 1960s\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eBrief Historical Overview and Usage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Harrier GR.1, GR.3, and AV-8A aircraft earned their place in aviation history as pioneering designs capable of vertical\/short takeoff and landing (V\/STOL). British Harriers were widely used by the Royal Air Force from the late 1960s, including during the Falklands conflict in 1982, where they distinguished themselves with outstanding performance. The AV-8A was a variant for the US Marine Corps, mainly used in the 1970s and 1980s. The air brake is a crucial structural component, enabling effective maneuvering and shortening the landing roll—thus, its precise representation is very important for models of these aircraft.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eProduct Features and Recommendation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Aires 4839 set stands out for its exceptional attention to detail and crispness, surpassing the capabilities of factory plastic. The use of resin allows for thin walls and full dimensional accuracy with the original, guaranteeing realism in the finished model. The set will be appreciated by both advanced and intermediate modelers who expect authenticity and high realism—especially when displaying the Harrier with the air brake deployed.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/5 – requires skills in working with and assembling resin, suitable for intermediate modelers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended for:\u003c\/strong\u003e a must-have addition to any Harrier 1\/48 diorama or model for realism and detail enthusiasts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Aires","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54723386573134,"sku":"AIRE4839","price":52.32,"currency_code":"PLN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/5149\/0638\/files\/d167d8914535c5c0ddcd50d899723719.jpg?v=1755556833","url":"https:\/\/plastmodel.pl\/en\/products\/57369-aires-4839-harrier-gr1gr3-av-8a-air-brake-148-kinetic","provider":"Plastmodel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
