Eduard BIG49403 Ki-21-I ICM 1/48

The Eduard BIG49403 Ki-21-I set for the Mitsubishi Ki-21-I "Sally" 1/48 scale bomber model, dedicated to the ICM brand kit, is a complete solution for modelers wishing to outfit their miniature with the finest details. The Mitsubishi Ki-21, known by the Allied codename "Sally", was a heavy, twin-engine bomber used by the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II from 1938 to 1945. This aircraft participated in major aerial campaigns on the Chinese front, battles in the Pacific, and in Southeast Asia, being a crucial element of Japanese bomber aviation during the conflict.

The featured BIG49403 set belongs to the category of model accessory sets and consists of three selected accessories:

• EX1004 – Painting mask allowing clean, precise masking of cockpit glazing and landing gear wheels.
• 491414 – Photo-etched fret designed to enhance internal and external details, ensuring an extremely realistic final effect.
• FE1415 – Seat belt fabricated from thin STEEL, faithfully representing the original belts with subtle details characteristic of the Ki-21-I.

The set is produced from the highest quality materials: the frets are made using photo-etching technology from metal alloy, the masks from elastic laser-cut foil, and the seat belts from painted, thin steel to ensure the utmost fidelity in 1/48 scale.

Eduard BIG49403 is the ideal choice for modelers seeking the highest authenticity and attention to detail. We particularly recommend this product for intermediate and advanced hobbyists who wish to elevate their model above the standard level of detail offered by the ICM base kit. Time savings and the set's completeness are additional advantages—there is no need to purchase detail upgrades separately; everything you need comes in one box.

Difficulty level: 4/5 – recommended for modelers experienced with photo-etched parts and precise masking. The set does not include a plastic model; it is an aftermarket accessory set.

If you want your Ki-21-I to look like a museum exhibit—by choosing Eduard BIG49403, you invest in realism, precision, and unmatched quality!
