The B-36 Peacemaker is a heavy strategic bomber produced for the United States Air Force (USAF). It was used during the Cold War period from the late 1940s to the mid-1950s. The Convair B-36 was the largest piston-jet powered bomber in aviation history, known for its enormous range and nuclear bomb carrying capability. From 1949 to 1959, it was the backbone of the USA's strategic air command, often stationed at bases within the United States and during international maneuvers.

The presented set contains a complete set of resin wheels for the B-36 model, with a realistically rendered weighted tires effect. This allows for the natural sagging effect of the tires under the weight of the aircraft, significantly enhancing the realism of the finished model. Additionally, the set allows for choosing the variant of the fuselage nose wheels—as per the airplane version, the modeler can install the appropriate pair of wheels. The set does not include metal or photo-etched parts, but instead focuses on perfect surface and tread details, which offers a significant advantage over parts supplied in standard plastic kits.

Recommendation: This product is especially recommended for intermediate and advanced modelers who expect a higher level of detail and true realism in the landing gear presentation of legendary bombers. The improvement in quality is particularly noticeable when displaying the models on layouts or dioramas.

• Assembly difficulty: 2/5 – few parts, requires experience with resin and appropriate adhesives.
