Quinta Studio 1:48 F/A-18F early: a 3D-printed colored interior is an add-on set for bringing out the interior of a plastic model in 1:48 scale. It is not a kit of an aircraft.
Responsibility details are not available.
This set from Quinta Studio brings a color-printed cockpit interior for the F/A-18F in its earlier form on decal paper. It is not a kit of an aircraft but an accessory for a plastic model: it brings out the instrument panel, the side consoles and the rest of the cockpit equipment. The features are already colored and broken up, so picking out tiny instruments with a brush falls away. The set is cut for the Hobby Boss kit.
The F/A-18F Super Hornet is the two-seat version of the multirole carrier aircraft of the US Navy. Against the older Hornets it received a larger airframe, more powerful engines and rectangular air intakes, so it carries more fuel and more underslung stores and returns to the deck better with unexpended ordnance. The rear seat is taken by a weapons systems officer who works the sensors and the guided munitions, and that station differs markedly from the pilot's: it is exactly this difference that makes the interior of the two-seat version interesting. The name gives the designation early, which within the range sets the earlier form of the cockpit apart from later changes.
Before you start, dry-fit to check whether the cockpit parts sit without play and whether anything prevents the colored layer from lying down. A smooth and degreased surface holds best, so remove any small burrs left by sanding beforehand. Sharp tweezers and patience matter more here than speed. Once finished it is worth flattening the interior gently with a matte varnish, so that gloss does not spoil the sense of scale, and picking out the edges and recesses with a dark shade: the cockpit then reads as deeper.
