1:72 Panavia Tornado ejection seats x 2

Panavia Tornado Ejection Seats, 1:72 (Eduard)

A detail accessory from Eduard – a pair (2 pcs) of ejection seats for the multi-role combat aircraft Panavia Tornado, whose crew consists of a pilot and a weapon systems operator in tandem seating. This is not an aircraft model, but replacement parts that replace the plastic seats in a Tornado kit in 1:72 scale. The seats are made from resin / 3D printing and offer noticeably finer detail than the stock plastic.

What the accessory offers

• Two ejection seats for the Tornado's tandem cockpit.
• Fine detail of the harnesses, handles and seat structure.
• A more accurate cockpit appearance than the kit's plastic parts.

Building and usage tips

First wash the parts to remove any residue of uncured print resin. Carefully cut off the thin print supports with a sharp modeling blade (not with cutters). Glue with cyanoacrylate glue. Wear respiratory protection when sanding. Before gluing them in, check the fit in the cockpit tub. The detail stands out with shaded painting of the harnesses and a fine wash.

Who they are for

• For modelers building the Panavia Tornado in 1:72 scale.
• For anyone wanting greater cockpit detail.
• For builders of resin and 3D-printed accessories.

This is a detail accessory, not a complete model. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted; the base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
