About product

Aires electronics bay - McDonnell F3H-2 Demon (1:48)

A resin detail set from Aires that lets you show the electronics bay open on a 1:48 model of the American McDonnell F3H-2 Demon carrier fighter. It is not an aircraft kit but an aftermarket accessory for more experienced modelers. The parts are cast in resin with fine structure on the equipment boxes, the wiring and the inner walls of the bay.

The real subject

The avionics of the real Demon were housed in separate bays reached through service panels that the ground crew opened for maintenance. The F3H Demon was an American single-seat, single-engine carrier fighter of the 1950s, an all-weather interceptor armed with cannon and guided missiles. An open bay brings a model to life in a maintenance scene or a diorama.

Building tips

These are resin parts for advanced builders. Wash them in warm soapy water to remove any mold release agent, cut the casting blocks off with a saw and clean up the surfaces. Bond them with super glue (cyanoacrylate). An opening usually has to be cut in the fuselage to seat the bay, so work slowly and dry-fit as you go. Protect your airways while sanding resin, as the dust is harmful.

Who the set is for

  • More experienced modelers who build maintenance scenes
  • Diorama builders in 1:48 scale
  • Collectors of American naval aviation subjects
  • Modelers used to working with resin and super glue

The set does not contain the model itself, glue or paints. It is meant for finishing an existing kit in that scale.

FAQ

No. It is a resin detail set of an open electronics bay, an accessory for an F3H-2 Demon kit already under construction in 1:48 scale.

It shows the avionics compartment reached through the service panels. On a model it suits a maintenance scene or a diorama with the aircraft opened up.

Usually yes. An opening is cut in the fuselage to seat the bay, which is why the set is best suited to more experienced modelers who work with resin.
