Il-2m3 Stormovik is one of the most recognizable Soviet ground attack aircraft of World War II, famed for its durability and effectiveness on the Eastern Front. The Il-2m3 version featured improved armor and distinctive two-seat cockpits, which increased its survivability in combat. These aircraft were widely used in various battles, including Operation Bagration and the liberation of Berlin.

The Eduard FE974 seatbelts are excellently detailed and historically accurate representations of the original belts used in Soviet Stormoviks. Thanks to the use of stainless steel, they are durable, finely colored, and exceptionally thin – allowing easy installation even in the confined cockpit space of the model.
