AIM-7E Sparrow 1:32 Brassin (632-084) This is another set of missiles, recently released by Eduard, in their Brassin range, and as is usual for these types of sets, it is contained within the standard cardboard box Brassin use for their more fragile items. The set contains four Sparrow missile bodies, complete with tailfins, separate body fins, a small sheet of etched brass, and a smallish decal sheet. As with the Sidewinder set reviewed HERE, the parts are tentatively attached to their moulding blocks by thin webs, which are easily detached and cleaned up. Construction is minimal, with the almost centrally mounted body fins glued into position along with the brass exhaust ring. The decal sheet provides all the various stencils and coloured rings, denoting whether the missile is live or inert, also denoted by the colour of the main body. The mouldings are what we have come to expect from Brassin, clean, with fine details and very cleaning up to do. Conclusion This is another missile that is actually older that you realise and this version, first delivered in 1958 was fitted to various marks of the F-4 Phantom II up to the Vietnam War. Either fitted to a model or on their own mounted on a trolley, they will make a great addition to the modellers arsenal. Review sample courtesy of
