Hobby Boss 80318 1/48 Rafale C: Scale Modelling Perspective

The Hobby Boss 80318 1/48 Rafale C kit renders the Rafale's compact, agile profile in plastic parts suited to careful assembly. This Hobby Boss 80318 release highlights the aircraft's delta wing and twin-engine layout at a collector-friendly size.

Role and Design Features

The Dassault Rafale C is valued for multirole flexibility, serving in air-to-air and air-to-ground roles. The model captures the aircraft's primary design elements like the blended fuselage and control surfaces, letting modellers explore the Rafale's structural themes without overstretching detail claims.

Assembly Notes and Presentation

Builders can expect crisp panel lines and parts that fit well when test-fitted. The cockpit and landing gear require delicate work to achieve a convincing finish, and the finished model stands well in a collection or as part of a display base.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included, recommended for enhanced realism
Novice modellers can attempt the Hobby Boss 80318 but should expect detailed subassemblies. Starting with basic tools and taking time on cockpit and gear will improve results.
Some seams and joints will benefit from light sanding and filler to achieve smooth joins, especially around the fuselage and wing roots.
There are cockpit and ordnance upgrades available for many 1/48 jets; check compatibility before purchasing to ensure proper fit with the Hobby Boss 80318 parts.
