About product

Armory 1:48: photo-etched HUD combining glasses for postwar Soviet aircraft

A small photo-etched set in thin metal sheet, the manufacturer's part number peA4802. It replaces the combining glass of the HUD in the cockpit of Soviet and Russian jets in 1:48 scale. It is not a model, nor an armament part for one, but a small upgrade of the cockpit interior.

The real subject

HUD is the abbreviation for head-up display, in Soviet practice the windshield indicator. It projects flight and aiming data for the pilot onto a transparent plate in front of the windshield, so that he does not have to drop his eyes to the instrument panel. In Soviet equipment this solution came into use only on fourth-generation machines; the older postwar types carried conventional optical gunsights, so compare the shape of the combining glass against your own kit.

Fitting tips

Separate the parts from the photo-etched fret with a sharp scalpel over a hard surface, not by twisting, and sand the cut. Bend thin frames in a photo-etch bending tool or between two razor blades, never in your fingers. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue in the smallest possible amount, ideally a gel one, so that it does not wick onto the transparent surface. Degrease the photo-etched part before gluing; neither primer nor paint holds on greasy metal.

Who the set is for

  • builders of Soviet and Russian jets in 1:48 scale
  • modelers who leave the canopy open and the gunsight is in plain view
  • more experienced modelers who have already worked with photo-etched parts
  • adding to a kit where the gunsight is done only in coarse plastic

This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

A photo-etched metal sheet with the parts of the HUD combining glass in 1:48 scale. The exact number of parts is not stated here; check it on the box.

The set is made for postwar Soviet and Russian jets in 1:48 scale, but the specific list of types is not stated here. Compare the shape of the gunsight against your own kit; on machines of the older generations it differs.

It is not. It is a cockpit accessory that you buy separately to go with a finished kit.

Cyanoacrylate glue, ideally a gel one. Cement for plastic will not join metal.
