About product

Nozzles in the closed position

The set replaces the engine exhaust nozzles on F-14B and F-14D Tomcat models in 1:48 scale. The nozzles are rendered in the closed position, that is drawn in, as they are seen on a parked aircraft. On a finished model this is a clearly visible place: the tail faces the viewer every time anyone walks around the model, and closed nozzles give the tail a shape that is hard to achieve with coarser parts.

The real subject

The Grumman F-14 Tomcat is an American carrier-based fighter with a variable-geometry wing and a crew of two. The B and D versions received different engines from the original A version, and with that the shape of the tail changed as well. The set is therefore aimed at these two versions; it does not suit a model of the A version.

Fitting and painting

  • Wash the parts in lukewarm water with a drop of detergent, degrease them and let them dry.
  • Cut the excess material away with a sharp blade a little clear of the part and sand the surface level.
  • Fit them dry and check that both nozzles protrude by the same amount and point in the same direction.
  • Paint the inside of the nozzle before you seat it on the fuselage, because afterwards you cannot reach it.
  • Apply the metallic shades and the heat staining in thin coats and keep comparing them with photographs of the machine you are building.
  • Secure the joint with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue) and sand the rest of the transition so that no seam shows.

Who it is for

For modelers who are building the later versions of the Tomcat and want the tail to look like that of a parked machine. The fitting is undemanding; the main work lies in the painting and in making both nozzles look the same.

Paints, glue and thinner are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The F-14B and F-14D versions. The A version has different engines and a differently shaped tail, and the set does not suit it.

In the closed, that is drawn-in position. Compare the position with photographs of the particular machine you are building.

Paint the inside before seating them on the fuselage. Apply the metallic shades and the heat staining in thin coats.

No. The parts are cleaned, degreased, tried dry and secured with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Just watch that both nozzles look the same.
