Responsibility details are not available.
A cast resin set of accessories for the M163 Vulcan in 1:72 scale from the Czech maker Black Dog. It holds separate parts of equipment, cargo and tarpaulins that are attached to a finished model. The base kit named is the M163 Vulcan from Italeri. The set is not a model of the vehicle and cannot be built without the base kit.
The M163 Vulcan was an American self-propelled anti-aircraft vehicle: a rotating turret with a six-barrel 20 mm rotary cannon was mounted on the chassis of the M113 carrier. The weapon could fire thousands of rounds a minute, so it was meant to hit a low-flying target with a short but dense burst. In practice it was used just as often against ground targets, where its effect was devastating. The vehicles served from the end of the 1960s and some armies used them well past 2000.
First rinse the resin parts in lukewarm soapy water to remove the mold release residue. Cut the casting blocks off with a fine-tooth saw rather than snapping them. Sanding is better done under water or with respiratory protection. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue); solvent cement for plastic will not hold on resin. A primer is needed before painting. The parts for 1:72 scale are very small, so it pays to paint them while still on the casting block and cut them off last. It is worth fitting the rotary cannon and the turret tracker only after painting, as they break off easily during work.
The accessory set is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
