CBU-97 Cluster Bomb (672128)

Containing ten bomblets called "Skeets", these containers are designed to be dispensed over enemy vehicles, with the Skeets detecting targets and launching kinetic penetrators downwards toward the more lightly armoured topsides of vehicles.  The set includes six canisters with separate tail fins that you must glue to the main body.  A set of stencils are also included on a small decal sheet, with painting guide.

 

 

Eduard's Brassin range are a great source of munitions for the aviation modeller, especially the huge variety of weapons carried by modern jets.  As usual with Eduard's resin sets, they arrive in the familiar Brassin clamshell box, with the resin parts safely cocooned on dark grey foam inserts, and the instructions sandwiched between the two halves, doubling as the header card. The casting is  is top rate and these are to be recommended if you need them for your build.
