About product

Seat belts for Imperial Japanese Navy fighters — photo-etched set from Eduard, 1:48 scale

A set of pre-printed color photo-etched seat belts in steel from the Czech manufacturer Eduard. It is not a kit or an aircraft model — it is a detail accessory that replaces the shapeless plastic or missing belts in a cockpit. The belts come printed in color from the factory, so they need no painting; you simply cut them from the fret, shape them and glue them onto the seat. Steel also holds a bend better than softer brass.

The real subject

The Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service flew agile carrier-based and land-based fighters in the Pacific, which in the first years of the war dominated through their maneuverability and their range. Their cockpits were fitted with multi-point belts laid out differently from those of the Allies. Faithful belts are among the details that give a Japanese cockpit its authentic character.

Tips for working with photo-etched parts

Cut the part off with a sharp knife at the fret and form the bends over the edge of a ruler or with a bending tool. Bond with a tiny drop of super glue (cyanoacrylate), ideally a gel. Because of the size of the parts the set is better suited to advanced modelers; tweezers and a magnifier come in useful. Protect the color printing from sanding and from aggressive thinners.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers of Japanese naval fighters in 1:48 scale
  • Advanced builders who want a realistic cockpit
  • Those who prefer finished color belts without painting
  • Collectors of Eduard photo-etched accessories

This is a cockpit accessory, not a model. The kit, paints and glue are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. These are photo-etched steel seat belts for a cockpit. Neither the Japanese naval fighter model nor the seat is included — the belts are added to an existing kit.

No. The belts come printed in color from the factory. You only cut them from the fret, shape them gently and glue them down with super glue. Painting over them is not recommended, so as not to damage the printing.

Steel photo-etch holds a formed bend better than softer brass, so the belt looks naturally draped and does not spring back flat.
