Mirage F.1 Update sets
1:72 Special Hobby

Following on from their excellent kits of The Mirage F.1, Special Hobby are now producing their own aftermarket sets. The first of these are for the wheels, exhaust, and Radar units.


Wheels
These are for all aircraft, and again as well as being designed for the Special Hobby kits they should fit the kits from Hasegawa and Esci. The wheels are well cast with the tread visible, one has a tiny pin hole only visible under magnification which paint should fill with no issues. They are a direct replacement for the kit wheels.

Uncovered Radar Unit
This uncovered Cyrano IV radar unit is designed directly for their new kit. The mounting plate fits directly onto the front of the kit fuselage in place of the nose cone. The radar unit itself and the scanner dish then fit to the mounting plate. The units are highly detailed and should enhance the front of your model if you wish to show the unit in place.

Pressurised Radar Unit
This covered and pressurised Cyrano IV radar unit is designed directly for their new kit. The mounting plate fits directly onto the front of the kit fuselage in place of the nose cone. The radar unit itself then fits to the mounting plate. The unit is highly detailed and should enhance the front of your model if you wish to show the unit in place.

Exhaust Unit
This is a direct replacement for the kit parts in the new Special Hobby kit. There are three resin parts and a small PE fret.

Conclusion
These are high quality parts and should add to what are already great kits from Special Hobby, and of course the kits from other manufactures. Very highly recommended.
