Aires 7051 ACES II ejection seats 1/72 – Ejection Seat Upgrade Set

The Aires 7051 ACES II ejection seats 1/72 set is a professional kit of ACES II type ejection seats in 1:72 scale, designed especially for modelers seeking to enhance the realism of their aircraft cockpit interiors. This product is intended for self-assembly and serves as an advanced upgrade component, primarily designed for modern American fighter jets. ACES II seats have been widely used, and are still in use, in US Air Force aircraft such as the F-15 Eagle, F-16 Fighting Falcon, A-10 Thunderbolt II, B-1B Lancer, and F-22 Raptor, from the 1980s until the present day.

The history of the ACES II seat dates back to the early 1980s, when McDonnell Douglas Aircraft Division began implementing a modern rescue system for pilots. Distinguished by high levels of safety, comfort, and universal mounting options, the ACES II seat has literally saved dozens of pilots' lives during various conflicts (including the Gulf War and actions in Iraq and Afghanistan). It is used primarily by United States military aviation, but can also be found in some aircraft of NATO members.

The Aires ejection seats in this version are crafted from high-quality resin, allowing for precise replication of even the smallest details – including seat belts, cabling, and emergency release handles. The set does not contain metal or photo-etched elements; however, the resin component alone delivers impressive realism for 1:72 scale models.
