Scale Aircraft Conversions 72059: Su-33 Landing Gear
PRICE: $14.95 MSRP
FOR: Hasegawa 1/72 kit
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES: Cast Metal

This Scale Aircraft Conversions set is for the Hasegawa 1/72 Su-33 and it may well fit the earlier Flankers that have been produced by Hasegawa over the years. The kit includes the beefy main gear struts with the small retraction links. The nose gear as well as its retraction strut, oleo scissors and smaller item, which I am guessing is the nose wheel steering assembly are also included. These are a direct replacement for the kit items. 

The gear is quite sturdy, and all one needs to do is clean up the mold seams, paint things and install them. As is the norm, some of the thin pieces may be a tad bent, but will straighten up quite easily.

You can order these direct athttp://www.scaleaircraftconversions.com if your local hobby shop or favorite on-line retailer does not stock them.
