Eduard 491460 B-17F Cockpit EDUARD 1/48 is a high-quality aftermarket set designed for the plastic model of the legendary Boeing B-17F heavy bomber in 1/48 scale. This product belongs to the category of advanced photo-etched and resin accessory sets, created for demanding modelers for whom authenticity of execution and cockpit interior detail are a priority.

The Boeing B-17F Flying Fortress is an American four-engine bomber used primarily during World War II (years 1942–1945, period: World War II). It was renowned for its great durability and formidable combat capabilities. B-17F crews participated in, among others, daylight raids over the territory of the Third Reich, such as the famous aerial battles over Schweinfurt and Regensburg. It was primarily operated by the United States Army Air Forces, as well as by British forces to a limited extent.

The included Eduard 491460 set is intended for installation in a 1/48 scale plastic model. It consists of precisely crafted photo-etched details and resin components that allow for accurate reproduction of the bomber cockpit: instrument panel, instrument boards, crew seat belts, control stick details, floors, cockpit equipment items, and side panels. Thanks to advanced photo-etching techniques, the details impress with their thinness, sharpness, and realistic surface detailing.
