Review: High Planes Mirage Afterbuner 1/48




Title: High Planes Mirage Afterbuner 1/48

Description: This a simple drop in replacement afterburner for the Mirage IIIO/E ( for the Italeri kits)  in 1/48 scale.

As can be seen the resin set is cast in a creamy white resin and consists of the afterburner and exhaust tubing. 
The exhaust tubing is nicely ribbed and the afterburner itself contains the delicate mechanisms which are well replicated.
