New from S.B.S Model comes a superdetailed cockpit for Hasegawa's ever-popular 1:48 Messerschmitt Bf 109F.

While recent kits may have surpassed Hasegawa's Friedrich in the accuracy stakes, the kit remains a best seller on account of its easy availability and simple construction. However, that simplicity also means a rather basic cockpit, so it's great to see S.B.S Model come to the rescue with the release of a superbly detailed replacement "office".

Combining the best of each medium, the new cockpit comprises ten conventional resin parts and a clear-cast fuel line, plus over twenty five etched brass details, including a seat harness, armoured headrest and a film-backed instrument panel.

Set #40037 is available now, priced just 14 EUR.

(And in case anyone is contemplating some radical surgery to squeeze this gem of a cockpit into the excellent Zvezda kits, fear not - S.B.S Model have a similarly detailed set designed specifically for Zvezda's Friedrichs on the way too.)
