Boeing B-17F is the famous American four-engine heavy bomber, widely used by the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. The B-17F played a key role in strategic bombing raids on targets in Nazi Germany and other theaters of war between 1942–1945. This legendary aircraft became famous for its durability and for its role in the battles over Germany.

The Eduard 6481022 set replaces the delicate plastic landing gear found in B-17F models, significantly improving load-bearing strength and manufacturing precision. The bronze metal landing gear provides solid support even for heavier, upgraded builds, making it ideal for long-term display, maintenance or transport. Every detail has been recreated with care for realistic appearance, capturing the unique character of the original. Thanks to high-quality castings, this set offers a much higher level of detail than standard plastic parts.

The packaging includes a complete set of landing gear parts and a clear instruction manual, tailored for modelers of varying experience levels – though, due to the nature of the product, it is recommended for intermediate and advanced hobbyists (difficulty level 3/5). This upgrade is especially recommended for precise diorama builders, modelers exhibiting their work, and anyone expecting maximum realism and durability from their B-17F model.

We recommend Eduard 6481022 B-17F undercarriage legs BRONZE EDUARD 1/48 for demanding collectors and historical aviation enthusiasts. It is a reliable way to upgrade your model, enhance its aesthetic and structural qualities, and invest in the longevity of your finished project.
