About product

The real subject

As soon as a Phantom shuts down its engines and sits on the apron, ground crews fit covers over the intakes. The reason is simple: nothing should be able to fall into an open intake, since even a small object sucked in at the next start-up can destroy the engine. The covers are therefore usually brightly colored, so they are not forgotten before flight, and they belong on a parked aircraft just as naturally as chocks under the wheels.

What the set contains

The package provides intake covers in 1:48 scale for the F-4 Phantom II model, shaped to fit the Hasegawa kit. On the model, they cover the empty intakes, so there is no need to detail the ducts all the way to the engines, and they add operational realism to the scene around the aircraft.

Building and painting tips

  • Dry-fit the covers before gluing the fuselage together, since the mating surface is harder to adjust once the fuselage is closed up.
  • The parts are not made of polystyrene; they are joined with cyanoacrylate or epoxy glue.
  • Cut away excess material and manufacturing marks with a sharp blade a little away from the part, and sand down the remainder.
  • Wash the covers in lukewarm water with dish soap before painting, and let them dry.
  • A bold color, slightly grimy edges and a faded surface look more convincing than fresh, saturated paint.

Who it is for

The set belongs with Phantom models parked on the apron, in dioramas with ground crew, and with display models where it should be clear the aircraft is not about to fly anywhere. Check the fit against the manufacturer's instructions.

Terms of supply

Only the covers as described are supplied. The aircraft kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

They cover the intakes of a parked aircraft so that no foreign object falls in and damages the engine the next time it runs.

The listing ties it to the Hasegawa kit in 1:48 scale. With other kits, expect to adjust the mating surface.

They are not made of polystyrene, so ordinary modeling cement will not bond them. Use cyanoacrylate or epoxy glue on a degreased surface.

The fitted covers close off the intake, so the inside of the duct is not visible. That saves work on exactly the part that is hardest to do.
