About product

HGW textile belts - Bell P-39Q/N Airacobra (1:32)

A set of realistic cockpit seat belts for models of the Bell P-39 Airacobra fighter in its Q and N versions, in 1:32 scale. It is not an aircraft kit but a detail accessory from the Czech maker HGW. The belts are of fine microtextile with etched metal buckles and faithfully imitate fabric straps with their natural sag.

The real subject

The Airacobra was an American fighter with an unusual layout: the Allison engine sat behind the pilot in the middle of the fuselage and drove the propeller through a shaft. The aircraft had a nose landing gear, car-style doors to the cockpit and a large cannon firing through the propeller hub. It was used in numbers by the Soviet Air Force under wartime deliveries, where it excelled in combat at low altitude.

Use and tips

Shorten the microtextile straps to the length you need, crumple the fabric lightly and smooth it out again for a realistic shape. Thread them through the etched buckles and glue them to the seat with PVA glue (white glue). Do not use cyanoacrylate, which could harden or mark the textile. The belts are toned and resistant to ordinary products, so they take a discreet weathering.

Who it is for

  • Modelers who want to lift a cockpit above plastic and decal belts
  • Builders in 1:32 scale with an eye for detail
  • Collectors of American and Soviet fighters of the Second World War
  • More experienced modelers used to fine etched parts

The accessory does not include the model itself, glue or paints. It is meant for completing an existing kit.
