Yahu YMA7310 SBD Dauntless/ Hasegawa 1/72 – Instrument Panel for Aircraft Model Kits

Yahu YMA7310 is a precisely crafted detail designed for the SBD Dauntless plastic model in 1/72 scale, manufactured by Hasegawa. This decal is a complete instrument panel made using advanced photo-etching technology and colored digital printing. It was created for the most demanding modelers who wish to add exceptional realism to their model during cockpit finishing.

The SBD Dauntless is an American dive bomber, most famous for its service during World War II. The aircraft was produced by the Douglas Aircraft Company and served as the main equipment of the US Navy's carrier aviation between 1940–1945. It took part in, among others, the Battle of Midway and operations in the Pacific, where American SBD Dauntless aircraft contributed to the sinking of several Japanese aircraft carriers.

Yahu YMA7310 is an accurately reproduced replica of the instrument panel in this aviation legend. The product is made from a metal photo-etched plate covered with a high-quality color print. As a result, every instrument detail—even the smallest markings and gauges—is clear and conveys the nature of the real aircraft's equipment.
