Quickboost QB48467 P-38F Lightning Air Intakes & B-33 Supercharger Academy / Eduard 1/48

Quickboost QB48467 is a high-quality accessory set for scale models of the P-38F Lightning fighter aircraft in 1/48 scale, designed for plastic kits by Academy and Eduard. The set includes precisely reproduced air intakes and the B-33 supercharger, made from finely cast resin that guarantees a much higher level of detail compared to parts found in standard kit sprues. This product is an excellent aftermarket upgrade for modelers seeking to enhance the realism and historical accuracy of their miniatures.

The P-38F Lightning is an American heavy fighter aircraft from World War II, primarily used by the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF). Its design was distinguished by its characteristic twin-boom fuselage and heavy firepower, making it highly effective in fighter-bomber, escort, and reconnaissance roles. The P-38F Lightning participated in combat in the Pacific Theater, Europe, North Africa, and China, being operated from 1942 until the end of World War II.

The Quickboost QB48467 set includes resin parts enabling accurate reproduction of key details—air intakes and supercharger. These are manufactured by high-resolution resin casting, resulting in crisp lines and intricate surface texture unattainable by plastic parts. Adding these parts not only significantly enhances the visual appearance of the model but also increases the collector value of the finished replica.

This product is primarily intended for intermediate and advanced modelers who value a high level of realism when recreating details on scale aircraft models. Installation of the upgrade parts is recommended for those experienced with working in resin and with precise cutting and fitting of small parts. Due to the requirements of handling, we recommend a difficulty level of 3/5.
