Eduard FE159 is an advanced set of photo-etched parts dedicated to the MiG-15bis model in 1/48 scale by Tamiya. This set allows you to significantly enhance the realism and detail of the cockpit of one of the most recognizable jet fighters of the Cold War era.

The MiG-15bis is an improved version of the Soviet MiG-15 fighter, which entered service at the end of the 1940s and was intensively used mainly during the Korean War (1950–1953). The original was manufactured by the USSR, and the aircraft was operated by many Warsaw Pact countries as well as nations like China and North Korea. The aircraft was distinguished by its excellent maneuverability, high ceiling, and powerful armament, confronting, among others, American F-86 Sabres in legendary dogfights over Korea.

The Eduard FE159 set is made of high-quality photo-etched metal, which ensures top-level detail precision. The parts are dedicated to the pilot's cockpit – included are detailed seatbelts, a color-printed instrument panel, side panels, seat construction details, and many other micro-components not available in a standard plastic model kit. The photo-etched details significantly enrich the original Tamiya set, highlighting the individual character and authenticity of the replica.
