    This 1/48 AIM-7E Sparrow set gives aircraft modelers two detailed missiles for period-appropriate Cold War and modern jet builds. It is designed and 3D printed in resin in-house by MPM Hobbies.

    Product Details

    • Material: UV-cured resin produced with LCD-based SLA printing.
    • Scale: 1/48.
    • Contents: Two AIM-7E Sparrow missiles.
    • Detail: Fine seeker, fin, panel-line, and mounting-hardware details based on AIM-7E references.
    • Finish: This MPM Hobbies print is shipped unpainted with 3D supports attached, and color images are for display purposes only.

    Compatibility

    Use this set to detail 1/48 aircraft that carried AIM-7 Sparrow missiles, including the F-14 Tomcat, F-4 Phantom II, F-15 Eagle, F/A-18 Hornet, F-16 Fighting Falcon, and F-106 Delta Dart. Confirm the specific kit's pylon and launcher arrangement before installation.

    Finishing and Handling

    Remove supports carefully, starting at the tip and working toward larger connections, because the fine details can be delicate. Lightly sand or prime any horizontal print lines. CA adhesive can be used for attachment or minor filling. Apply primer and paint suitable for resin.

    About the AIM-7E Sparrow

    The AIM-7E was a semi-active radar-homing, medium-range air-to-air missile introduced in the 1960s and used by US and allied air forces. Its period and configuration make it useful for Vietnam-era and later Cold War aircraft subjects.
