Eduard FE1040 F-104G late seatbelts STEEL 1/48 KINETIC MODEL

Eduard FE1040 F-104G late seatbelts STEEL 1/48 is a high-quality modeling accessory specifically designed for the F-104G Starfighter fighter jet models in 1/48 scale by KINETIC MODEL. The product is made from precisely photo-etched stainless steel, providing a realistic appearance as well as outstanding durability and flexibility during assembly. This detail is dedicated to modelers who wish to achieve the highest level of cockpit authenticity in their F-104G model, one of the most famous jet aircraft of the Cold War era.

The F-104G Starfighter was a single-seat fighter jet designed by the American company Lockheed and widely used by the air forces of many NATO countries, including Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Belgium, as well as Canada and Turkey. The F-104G variant was developed in the 1960s and served mainly during the Cold War, up until the 1980s and early 1990s, participating in both patrol and training missions. It played a significant role in Western European defense strategy against the USSR.

The included seatbelts reproduce the late standard used in the F-104G ejection seat. Thanks to photo-etching technology, they are exceedingly thin, flexible, and accurately replicate the original appearance of these components. This ready-to-use set only requires cutting out from the fret and shaping according to the manufacturer's instructions.
