About product

Photo-etched steel belts 1:48 U-2 / Po-2 (Eduard)

The set contains seat belts made using color steel photo-etch technology (STEEL). It is not a kit but an aftermarket accessory for a model of the Polikarpov Po-2 (U-2) biplane in 1:48 scale. With the steel belts you replace coarse plastic or missing belts and raise the realism of the open cockpits. Steel photo-etch is springier than brass and holds folds better, and the color printing faithfully imitates the webbing and the fittings, so the parts need no painting. It is made by the Czech firm Eduard.

The real subject

The Polikarpov Po-2 (the U-2 until 1944) was a Soviet biplane of mixed construction from the end of the 1920s. It served as a trainer, a liaison machine and an agricultural aircraft, and in the Second World War it became famous as a light night bomber flown by all-female regiments as well. It is among the most widespread aircraft in history.

Usage tips

Separate the belts with a sharp knife and shape them into natural folds with tweezers. Bond them with a small drop of super glue or with an adhesive for photo-etch. Protect the color printing from being sanded and work over a light surface so that the small parts do not disappear.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want realistic belts in the cockpit of the Po-2 in 1:48
  • Builders who are not satisfied with the plastic belts from a kit
  • Anyone after a quick improvement in detail with no painting needed

This is a detail accessory, not an aircraft model. The base kit and glue are not included in the package.
