Eduard 644271 FM-1 LööK TAMIYA 1/48 – Upgraded cockpit with resin and photo-etched details

Eduard 644271 FM-1 LooK TAMIYA 1/48 is a high-quality upgrade set dedicated to the FM-1 Wildcat plastic model kit by Tamiya in the popular 1/48 scale. This product is manufactured by the renowned Czech company Eduard, which specializes in producing detailed aftermarket accessories that enhance the realism and precision of model replicas.

The featured set is a modern addition for plastic models, consisting of 3D resin printed parts. It offers a much higher level of detail compared to the standard plastic parts provided in basic kits. The LööK Brassin set includes an extremely realistic, factory-painted instrument panel and ultra-thin, photo-etched steel seat belts for installation in the fighter cockpit.

The FM-1 was a carrier-based fighter widely used by the United States during World War II, particularly in service with the US Navy and Marines, and also supplied to allies under Lend-Lease. The aircraft saw action in the Pacific theater and served on numerous escort carriers and island airstrips.
