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 – Messerschmitt Me 262A:

The Messerschmitt Me 262 Schwalbe was the world's first operational jet fighter to see combat. Powered by two Junkers Jumo 004 turbojets and fitted with swept wings, it held a significant speed advantage over Allied piston-engined fighters. The A version was the basic fighter and fighter-bomber variant.

Despite its groundbreaking design, the Me 262 appeared too late and in too small numbers, and its potential was limited by unreliable engines and fuel shortages. It nevertheless remains one of the most important aircraft in aviation history.
