RESKIT RSU48-0081 F-14A Tomcat Open & Closed Exhaust Nozzles is a high-quality detail set designed for the 1:48 scale F-14A Tomcat fighter jet model, dedicated to the popular Tamiya kit. The product is made from resin, providing exceptional detail precision unattainable in plastic kits. The set includes a complete pair of engine exhaust nozzles – both open and closed versions – allowing the modeller to display the aircraft in any configuration they desire.

The F-14A Tomcat is a legendary American carrier-based fighter jet that debuted in 1974 and served primarily with the United States Navy (US Navy) until 2006. This aircraft became famous for its participation in military operations during the Cold War, including conflicts in the Middle East and well-known combat missions against Libya and Iran. In the F-14A model, the distinctive Pratt & Whitney TF30 engine nozzles are a very visible feature, and their details are crucial for the realism of your build.

RESKIT RSU48-0081 ensures a realistic reproduction of the geometry, layout of the metal panels, and exhaust rings, with exceptionally fine surface texture detail. By using top-quality resin, the details are perfectly crisp, and the set fits directly onto the Tamiya kit, eliminating the need for challenging modifications. The nozzles can be mounted either open (simulating an engine running) or closed (idle state).
