Application and Assembly
This product is intended for modelers looking to enhance the realism of their military vehicle scale models. Assembling photo-etched parts requires precision and the use of appropriate tools and adhesives, due to their delicate nature and small size.
Recommended Adhesive: For durable bonding of metal parts, it is recommended to use cyanoacrylate (CA) glue, commonly known as "super glue".
Alternative Bonding Methods: Metal parts can also be joined together by soldering, which provides an exceptionally durable and aesthetic bond, especially for components requiring high strength.
Compatibility: The product is compatible with a wide range of plastic military vehicle models in 1/16 scale, allowing for their detailing and the addition of authentic details specific to the era and vehicle type.
Further Detailing Options
For comprehensive model detailing, the MP-48 antenna mount can be complemented with other dedicated modeling accessories. ABER, as well as other leading manufacturers, offer specialized items such as:
Precisely turned metal gun and machine gun barrels,
Realistic individual link tracks made of metal,
Faithfully reproduced metal towing cables,
Vehicle crew miniatures (tankers) in the appropriate scale.
Combining these elements allows for the creation of a thoroughly refined and realistic military vehicle scale model, meeting the expectations of the most demanding modelers.
