R-27EP (AA-10 Alamo-F) missiles (4 pcs) (MiG-29, Su-27, Yak-141) (3D Printed), 1/72 - ResKit Models RS72-0577

The set ResKit Models RS72-0577 features four air-to-air missiles R-27EP, designated AA-10 Alamo-F in the NATO nomenclature, at a scale of 1/72. Made from 3D-printed parts, this detailing accessory is intended for scale models of fighter aircraft such as the MiG-29, Su-27, and Yak-141.

The R-27EP belongs to the Soviet, then Russian, R-27 missile family. This extended-range variant is paired with a passive homing seeker designed to detect radar emissions. Its distinctive appearance makes it an interesting weapon to complement a Soviet or Russian military aviation scene and personalize the loadout of a 1/72 fighter.

The 3D-printed elements make it possible to depict the missile’s fine shapes. As with any printed detailing part, careful separation from the supports, followed by a light cleaning of the contact points, helps preserve the details before assembly and painting.

Preparation with a primer suitable for 3D-printed parts then makes it easier to check the surface and apply paint. The missiles can be painted separately before installing them on the model, and then finished with a light weathering depending on the desired look.
