The set contains several resin parts to build a complete F-4E or F cockpit.
The detail is over all very good!

Sidewalls have simulated padding as well as other details. The Cockpit tub is very detailed and doesn't need much extra. There are two different RIO panels, one for the E and one for the F variants.

The seats are really nice, but lack some detail found on the Verlinden Seats (see review of Verlinden Super Detail Set for F-4E Phantom). They are also slightly smaller then the Verlinden seats. One very nice detail is that the seatbelts are in different positions on the two seats. The shoulder harness is stowed in the "hole" under the headrest which is appropriate for the F-4, I believe.
