Mi-24V USPU-24 with a machine gun YakB-12, 7 mm (3D Printed), 1/48 - ResKit Models RSU48-0141

Le ResKit Models RSU48-0141 is a 3D-printed detailing accessory at a scale of 1/48, dedicated to the USPU-24 nose turret fitted with the YakB-12.7 mm machine gun of the Mil Mi-24V. This reference lets you reproduce a distinctive element of the helicopter’s forward armament.

The Mi-24V belongs to the Mil Mi-24 helicopter family, recognizable by its imposing silhouette, its tandem cockpit, and its short weapon-carrying wings. On this version, the USPU-24 turret installed under the forward part of the fuselage houses the YakB-12.7, a four-barrel rotary machine gun. This assembly is a particularly visible detail on a 1/48 scale Mi-24V model.

Designed for the Mi-24 model kits by Zvezda, this accessory is aimed at modellers who want to work with dedicated detail parts for the front area of their helicopter. Preparing the 3D-printed parts requires careful handling, especially when separating them from their supports. A dry-fit is recommended before gluing to check the turret’s positioning in the fuselage.

Painting is best done in thin layers to preserve the fine surface details of the turret and the gun barrels. Suitable paints for model kits, glue compatible with 3D-printed parts, as well as precision tools are recommended for assembly and finishing.
