About product

F-86F Sabre, cockpit mask in 1:48 scale

The cut masks cover the windscreen and the bubble canopy of the legendary American fighter. Thanks to their precise shape a sharp boundary between the paint of the frame and the clear area is left once they come off.

The fighter that met MiGs over Korea

The North American F-86 Sabre was the first production American fighter with a swept wing and the main opponent of the MiG-15 in the area the airmen nicknamed MiG Alley. The F version received a more powerful engine and during production also a revised wing leading edge without slats, thanks to which the machine improved its agility at high altitude. After the Korean War the Sabre spread into the service of many other states and stayed in use for many years more.

The bubble canopy and its pitfalls

The canopy itself has minimal framing, but the windscreen with its flat bulletproof panel and triangular side panes is sensitive to masking. Do not forget to cover the frame where the canopy seats against the fuselage either. Free the transparent parts of grease before spraying, otherwise the mask may resist as it comes off and pull a layer of paint with it. On the real machine the frame at the seating line often has a different shade from the surrounding skin, so spray it separately and only once the base coat has dried.

For which modelers

  • Builders of fighters of the 1950s
  • Lovers of aircraft from the Korean sky
  • Those who want a clean transition between frame and glass
  • Modelers working with an airbrush

FAQ

Yes. Even though the framing is minimal, the rim all round and the frame at the windscreen are painted. Without a mask it is exactly that narrow line that shows most.

The most noticeable mark of the later production is the wing leading edge without extending slats. The cockpit stayed close in shape to the earlier variants.

Press it down with a blunt tip and let it rest a while before spraying. It also helps to degrease the glass, because a mask does not hold on a greasy surface.
