The Mirage III is a legendary French supersonic fighter jet from Dassault Aviation, one of the symbols of Cold War aviation. This versatile fighter was used in many conflicts during the 1960s and 1970s, including in the Middle East wars by Israel's air force. Thanks to its excellent performance and high maneuverability, the Mirage III earned a golden place in military aviation history.

The presented Quickboost QB48545 set allows you to replace the characteristic pitot tube located on the nose of the Mirage III, swapping the original plastic part for a much sharper and more detailed resin replacement.

Assembly requires basic experience working with resin accessories. Difficulty level: 2/5. If you value the highest attention to detail, this upgrade will meet your expectations!
