This latest release from SBS Model features a complete resin and photo etch cockpit for the MiG-21 PF from Academy.  

This cockpit set is includes:

  • reson cockpit tub

  • resin ejection seat with photo etch detail parts

  • resin cockpit side walls

  • resin and photo etch instrument panel with an acetate film

  • resin and photo etch HUD with an acetate film

  • small resin and photo etch parts to detail the cockpit including rudder pedals and control stick

The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free. You will be required to cut your model to properly fit this cockpit set. 

You will be required to fold the photoetch in this set, but if you have one of the Hold & Fold photo etch benders from The Small Shop, then this will be an easy process.  They have a variety of benders for sharp corners as well as rounded corners and in many different sizes.

This is quite the well detailed cockpit set.  The resin ejection seat looks excellent.

You can purchase these and other fine resin detail items directly from SBS Model or from the many retailers that carry their products.
