Responsibility details are not available.
An accessory set from the LooK line by the Czech company Eduard. This is not a kit of the aircraft but a finished instrument panel intended to be fitted into the cockpit of a plastic model in 1:48 scale that you have already bought. The panel comes painted and with the dial faces drawn in, so the modeler avoids the most laborious part of painting the interior: it is enough to separate it, try the fit and glue it in place of the original plastic part.
The designation ASA/M belongs to the last stage of the Italian upgrade of the Starfighter aircraft. It followed on from the earlier ASA program and again concerned above all the onboard equipment, so machines in this form differ from the basic version precisely in the arrangement of the cockpit. The type itself remained unmistakable thanks to its very short trapezoidal wing with sharp edges and its long slender fuselage. The cockpit is cramped and the instrument panel forms the dominant surface in it.
Try the fit dry first and make any modifications on the plastic recess rather than on the panel itself. The original plastic part of the instrument panel usually has to be removed or thinned so that the new panel does not collide with the canopy. It is glued with cyanoacrylate glue applied with a pin in a tiny drop, or with a drop of water-based gloss varnish. Do not overspray the colored surface or fog it with matte varnish, which would lose the impression of glass on the individual dial faces.
The set is an accessory for a plastic model, not a kit in its own right. The model, glue and paints are not included in the package. The target kit is not stated here, so check the match with your model and with the particular version of the aircraft beforehand.
