1/48 Cold War French Mirage III Engine Nozzle, Resin Model Accessory Kit, Unpainted
The Mirage III engine nozzle upgrade gives 1/48 aircraft builders a grey resin replacement part that brings crisp, finely cast afterburner detail to a Cold War icon where standard plastic often falls short. This is an accessory kit — a single upgrade component, no figures, not a full aircraft — and it ships unpainted and unassembled, ready for your primer and finishing work. The kind of refinement that lifts a jet build from decent to convincing.
- Scale: 1/48
- Era: Cold War
- Material: Unpainted grey resin — assembly & painting required

One of the three kits I ordered came defective, I made a claim and they resolved it on the same day. Everything perfect, thank you very much.

Painting & assembly
This kit arrives unassembled and unpainted, giving you complete creative freedom. We recommend using cyanoacrylate (super glue) for resin assembly. Clean parts with warm soapy water before priming. Use a quality resin primer before painting with acrylics or enamels. Pin larger joints for a stronger bond.
