The B-24D Liberator bomber was one of the most important American heavy aircraft used during World War II. Produced from 1941, it was widely used by both the USA and Allies in Europe, North Africa, and the Pacific—particularly in long-range, patrol, and strategic bombing missions. Known for its efficiency and long-range, the B-24D went down in history, among others, during Operation "Tidal Wave"—the famous raid on the Ploesti oil refineries in Romania in 1943. It was produced exclusively during World War II.

The seatbelts included in the Eduard set have been designed to the smallest details of the original—with separate shoulder and lap belts for pilots and crew members. Their use allows for the construction of competition-level models, emphasizing the authenticity of the B-24D cockpit and catching the eye of even the most demanding collectors.

We recommend this model for intermediate and advanced modelers who expect the highest quality and detail reproduction in their aircraft models. We rate the difficulty as 2/5—assembly does not require soldering but does call for precise cutting and skillful gluing of extremely thin photo-etched parts.

Eduard 49475 B-24D seatbelts are an essential addition for anyone wanting to bring their B-24D Revell or Academy models to a new level of realism and detail. It is an excellent choice for aviation history enthusiasts and World War II fans who value perfect details and cockpit authenticity.
