Tie down points (star type) US aircraft carrier, 1/48 - Brengun BRL48072

The Brengun BRL48072 is a photo-etched detailing set at 1/48 scale, dedicated to star-type tie-down points found on the decks of American aircraft carriers.

These elements help to enhance a flight deck section for displaying an aircraft in 1/48. On the real ship, the tie-down points are used to secure aircraft and various equipment on the deck.

This accessory is aimed at model makers who want to build or improve an American aircraft carrier deck diorama. Photo-etching requires careful cutting, the use of fine tweezers, and proper glue for metal parts.
