Eduard 648099 Spitfire Exhaust Stacks Fishtail 1/48 – Exhaust detail parts for the Spitfire model

Eduard 648099 Spitfire Exhaust Stacks Fishtail 1/48 is a high-quality accessory set designed for plastic models of the Supermarine Spitfire fighter in the popular 1:48 scale. The set includes realistically rendered "fishtail" exhausts, featuring the distinctive fin-shaped ends typical of later Spitfire variants used by the Royal Air Force (RAF) and other Allied air forces during World War II. These components are intended to replace the basic exhaust parts included in the base model kit, catering to modelers who seek the utmost level of detail and historical accuracy.

The Supermarine Spitfire, from which these specific exhausts are derived, was one of the most important fighters of World War II. Fishtail exhausts were used, among others, in the Spitfire Mk V and Mk IX variants. Their job was not only to improve the performance of the Merlin engine, but also to reduce the visibility of exhaust flames during night combat missions. Spitfires equipped with this type of exhaust system took part in the Battle of Britain and many key operations across all aerial fronts from 1939–1945.

The Eduard 648099 exhausts are made of precisely cast resin, which allows for a highly accurate reproduction of even the smallest details, such as thin-walled tips or clearly defined seams and metal textures. Thanks to the resin casting process, they have significantly higher detail quality than plastic equivalents. This product is aimed at modelers building plastic scale models and WWII enthusiasts. The set does not contain additional photo-etched or metal elements; it consists of a complete pair of exhausts, intended for assembly and painting by the modeler.
