SPACE set – pre-painted, dimensional 3D cockpit decals

SPACE is an Eduard line combining pre-painted, dimensional (3D) decals reproducing the instrument panel, cockpit sidewalls and seatbelts, reproduced directly on the dimensional 3D decals. The 3D decals have a tangible texture and depth, so the dials and switches look realistic without the need to hand-paint the small details.

The self-adhesive decals are applied directly to the cockpit parts from the kit, including the seatbelts onto the seat. It is a quick way to significantly raise the realism of the model's interior. The parts are designed for a specific plastic kit.

About the aircraft – F/A-18C Hornet:

The McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet is an American multirole carrier-based aircraft combining the functions of a fighter and a strike aircraft (hence the F/A designation). The single-seat F/A-18C version gained the ability to carry more modern guided weapons and improved avionics, allowing it to perform a wide range of tasks – from air combat to precision strikes.

The Hornet operated from US Navy carriers and Marine Corps bases, earning a reputation for reliability and versatility. It became one of the most recognisable naval-aviation aircraft of the turn of the 21st century.
