Hawker Tempest Mk.V was one of the most famous fighter aircraft used by the Royal Air Force during World War II (1944-1945). These machines distinguished themselves both as V-1 bomber interceptors and in operations over France shortly after the Normandy landings. The "late wheels" set replicates the characteristic late-war type tires used in the final stages of the war. The offered wheels stand out thanks to perfect tread and rim detail reproduction, often impossible to achieve with classic plastic sprues.

Why choose this set? Eduard's resin wheels provide an unrivaled level of detail: realistic factory inscriptions on the tires, delicate embossings, and textures make your model much closer to the original. The included painting masks allow for quick and precise painting of the rims, which will be appreciated by both intermediate and advanced modelers. Assembly is simple – we rate the difficulty at 1 (easiest): just swap the plastic wheels for the resin ones.

Recommended for: Modelers wishing to increase the realism of their Hawker Tempest Mk.V models, especially collectors of WWII British aviation and all those who value the highest quality of detail.
