Each component is manufactured from high-quality metal, guaranteeing unparalleled precision and crisp details.
Key Technical Features:
Material: High-quality photo-etched metal.
Scale: 1/72 scale, perfectly suited for standard aircraft models in this scale.
Compatibility: The parts are dedicated to the F-18E Super Hornet model, with particular emphasis on plastic kits from the manufacturer Hasegawa.
Exceptional Detail: Precise replication of fine cockpit elements, external surfaces, landing gear bays, or armament, which significantly surpasses the details offered by standard plastic parts.
Replacement for Original Parts: The metal photo-etched parts serve as direct replacements for their plastic counterparts, ensuring easy integration with the base model.
Assembly and Application
The photo-etched parts are supplied on sheets and require careful removal. For assembling these precise parts, the use of cyanoacrylate (CA) glue is recommended, which provides a strong and durable bond. For more advanced work and to achieve maximum durability, metal parts can also be joined together using soldering. The provided preview images accurately reflect the package contents and the level of detail offered by the set.
