Fresh in from NE Masks and Resin, these 1/32 AIM‑9L/M Sidewinder missiles are beautifully detailed, high‑resolution parts that will instantly upgrade the air‑to‑air loadout on your modern jet builds.
Full product description
This Black Ops 3D set provides [four] 1/32 AIM‑9L/M Sidewinder missiles designed to replace soft, simplified, or poorly molded kit parts. The L/M versions of the Sidewinder were the first true all‑aspect infrared‑guided missiles, widely carried by U.S. and NATO jets from the late Cold War through today.
Each missile is 3D printed with crisp detail on the seeker section, forward canards, and rear fins so your rails and wingtip stations look fully up to the standard of the rest of your build. These missiles are ideal for static or in‑flight displays where the air‑to‑air fit is a focal point.

Historical/technical note
The AIM‑9 Sidewinder family has been in service since the 1950s, with the L (Lima) and M (Mike) models adding all‑aspect capability, improved counter‑countermeasures performance, and low‑smoke motors. These variants became standard on Western fighters through the 1980s, 1990s, and beyond, making AIM‑9L/M an essential part of many Gulf War and later loadouts.
Installation and use
Clean the missiles of any print supports, then dry‑fit them to your kit’s launch rails or wingtip stations. Use CA glue to attach, aligning the missile body and fins with the aircraft’s centerline. Prime and paint in typical Sidewinder colors with appropriate bands and stencils to match your chosen aircraft and time period.
