Eduard EX975 Yak-9T TFace ZVEZDA 1/48 – painting masks

Eduard EX975 Yak-9T TFace is a professional set of painting masks dedicated to the Yak-9T fighter model in 1/48 scale, manufactured by Zvezda. The set has been developed for modelers who value the highest precision of details, time-saving, and comfort when working on finishing transparent elements, such as the cockpit canopy glazing. The masks are made from high-quality yellow premium-class vinyl tape, ensuring perfect adhesion to surfaces, no paint bleeding, and easy removal without risk of damaging the delicate model details.

The product was designed specifically for the Yak-9T – a Soviet fighter used by the USSR during World War II (years 1942–1945). The Yak-9T was widely used on the Eastern Front, especially during the Battle of Kursk, thanks to its heavy 37-mm cannon mounted above the engine, which made it particularly effective against tanks and enemy aircraft.
