Eduard FE1397 Sea King seatbelts STEEL Airfix 1/48

The Eduard FE1397 STEEL photo-etched seatbelt set is a high-quality accessory dedicated to the Airfix Sea King model in 1/48 scale. The SH-3 Sea King is a multi-purpose helicopter manufactured by the American company Sikorsky, widely used by numerous armed forces worldwide, including the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia. The Sea King played a significant role in operations during the Cold War and was extensively used in rescue operations, anti-submarine warfare, and transport missions from the 1960s to the present day.
