About product

ACES II ejection seats — late version 1:48 (Aires)

A resin detail set, not an airplane model. This resin set from the Aires brand in 1:48 scale brings ejection seats of the ACES II type in their late form. This seat is used in many American jet aircraft, so the set serves as a universal replacement for the simplified seats from the box. It is intended for experienced modelers; the base kit has to be obtained separately.

The real subject

The ACES II (Advanced Concept Ejection Seat) is the standard ejection seat of a number of American combat aircraft, among them for example the F-15, the F-16, the A-10 and the F-22. The late version differs in changes to the harness and the equipment. The resin casting faithfully captures the headrest, the harness and the firing handles, which plastic from the box as a rule only suggests.

Tips for working with resin

  • Wash the seats free of mold release residue from the mold
  • Cut the casting blocks off with a saw, do not break them out
  • Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate)
  • The harness and the details come into their own after a wash and a dry brush

Who the set is for

  • For builders of American jet aircraft with the ACES II seat in 1:48
  • For experienced modelers with experience of resin
  • For lovers of cockpit detail
  • For those for whom the seat from the box is not enough

This is a detail accessory, not a model. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. These are resin ejection seats that will replace the seats in your model. The base kit has to be obtained separately.

The ACES II is the standard seat of many American combat aircraft, for example the F-15, the F-16, the A-10 and the F-22. The set is thus a universal replacement for a range of models.

Check the number of pieces against the illustration on the box and the instructions. The seats can be used individually as the model requires.

An airbrush works well for the base, brush work for the harness and a wash to pick out the detail. A dry brush emphasizes the edges and the relief.
