DEF Model 1:48 F-15E/K Strike Eagle ACES II seats with a wool pad is a resin set for the two-seat cockpit of a Strike Eagle model in 1:48 scale.
Responsibility details are not available.
This is an add-on for the cockpit of a model, not an aircraft model. The set contains ACES II ejection seats cast in resin and prepared for the two-seat cockpit of the Strike Eagle. The Wool Pad designation says that the cushions have a coarser wool finish with a pronounced surface structure; a sister listing from the same manufacturer offers the smoother fabric variant. The kind of pad is the only difference between the two listings, so when choosing go by how the cockpit appears on your subject.
ACES II, in full the Advanced Concept Ejection Seat, is an American ejection seat introduced at the end of the 1970s and to this day the standard on most combat aircraft of the US Air Force, from the F-15 and F-16 through the A-10 to the strategic bombers. The McDonnell Douglas F-15E Strike Eagle is the two-seat strike version of the Eagle, where a weapon systems officer sits beside the pilot, and the F-15K Slam Eagle is the Korean variant of the same machine. The long clear canopy leaves both seats excellently visible, so they really come into their own on a finished model.
Wash the parts with lukewarm water and a drop of detergent and let them dry, otherwise the paint holds badly on them. Separate the remnants of the casting blocks with a saw and level the mating surfaces, so that both seats stand at the same height. Try the seating dry before the fuselage is closed. Paint them away from the model: a dark base for the structure, a different shade for the cushions, a thin dark shadow into the recesses. The coarse structure of the wool pad stands out beautifully after a light pass with a lighter dry brush.
This is an add-on set made of resin. The aircraft model, paints and glue are not included in the package.
