About product

Photo-etched set Grumman F6F-3 Hellcat 1:48 (Eduard)

A photo-etched detail set from the Czech manufacturer Eduard for a model of the American Grumman F6F-3 Hellcat carrier fighter in 1:48 scale. It is not an aircraft kit but an accessory for sharpening the interior and the exterior of a matching plastic model. The set contains fine etched parts that replace or complete simplified plastic components.

What the set is for

Etched parts give the model a fineness that injection-molded plastic cannot manage — thin cockpit elements, instrument panels, seat harness and small exterior details. The F6F-3 Hellcat was a rugged US Navy carrier fighter with a Pratt & Whitney R-2800 radial engine; from 1943 it became the backbone of fighter aviation in the Pacific and contributed markedly to winning air superiority. Its roomy cockpit only gains from fine photo-etch.

Usage tips

  • Separate the parts with a sharp knife on a hard surface
  • Form the bends in a bending tool or between two rulers
  • Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate), or a small drop of epoxy
  • Degrease bare brass parts before gluing and paint them afterwards

Who the set is for

  • For advanced modelers with experience of etched parts
  • For fans of carrier fighters and of the Pacific theater
  • For those who want to bring out the interior and the exterior of a model

The set is an accessory to the build; on its own it does not make a model. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No, it is a photo-etched detail set. It serves to sharpen the interior and the exterior of a matching plastic F6F-3 Hellcat model; on its own the set does not make a model.

For more advanced modelers — the parts have to be separated, bent and glued down with super glue (cyanoacrylate).

Bare etched parts are painted once glued down; pre-painted elements need no painting. An airbrush and a fine brush both help.
