Quickboost QB48532 Sea Hawk Ejection Seat with Safety Belts 1/48

Quickboost QB48532 is a precisely crafted detail-up element – an ejection seat designed for 1/48 scale Sea Hawk aircraft models. Made from high-quality resin, the set offers outstanding detail fidelity, especially in the representation of safety belts and the seat construction characteristic of the original. This product is designed for modelers seeking maximum realism when recreating the interiors of aircraft cockpits.

Application and History of the Original Aircraft

The seat replicates the equipment of the British carrier-based jet Hawker Sea Hawk, used by the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm and exported to India, Germany, and the Netherlands, among others. The Sea Hawk was operated from the early 1950s to the late 1960s, notably during the Suez Crisis and various local conflicts of the Cold War era.

Features and Benefits

The high level of detail makes the Quickboost QB48532 perfect for upgrading Sea Hawk models from renowned manufacturers (e.g. Airfix).

The product is ideal for both dioramas and competition displays. We rate the assembly difficulty at 2/5 – basic skills with resin parts are required for proper installation.
