Mike Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 S-24 Rocket1:48 Eduard Brassin The S-24 is a large diameter post WWII unguided rocket that due to its 24cm diameter is carried individually on pylons rather than in a pod with others. It carries a large warhead and at over 2m in length is an impressive piece of ordnance with a range of around 1.5 miles once launched. It remains in service with the Russian Air Force today, although in this age of precision munitions, its uses must be increasingly limited. Arriving in Eduard's slim clamshell, inside are two missile bodies, plus a pair of adapter rails that will fit onto parts A13 and A14 of any of your Eduard Mig-21 kits if you are using them for this purpose. Additionally, a small fret of Photo-Etch (PE) brass is included for the exhausts of the solid rocket motors, and a small decal sheet containing stencils for both the rocket and its adapter rail, which are printed in black and red. Gunze colour call-outs are given throughout, with the rail painted SM01 Super Chrome, while the missile can be either H51 Light Gull Grey or H81 Khaki. Check your references to decide which colour to use. Conclusion A simple missile with moulded in fins that is almost a drop-in part, with no seams to sand away as you do with kit parts in styrene. Inclusion of decals and the PE exhausts improves the already impressive detail, and they should look good hanging off any appropriate Soviet aircraft. Highly recommended.
