The B-29 Superfortress is an American long-range heavy bomber, which was one of the most advanced aircraft of World War II. It was used primarily by the United States Army Air Forces between 1944 and 1960, participating in, among others, the famous raids on Japan and the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The cockpit and crew compartment of the B-29 bomber required state-of-the-art—by the standards of the time—safety systems, including specialized seat belts.

The Eduard 49617 set includes a complete set of intricately reproduced photo-etched seat belts, dedicated for all crew positions. The elements feature extremely fine details and high quality, guaranteed by the Czech company Eduard. Thanks to photo-etching technology, every strap, buckle, and clasp is rendered with authentic precision. Installing these belts significantly enhances the realism of the cockpit, making the model more attractive even for the most demanding collectors and aviation historians.

The set is recommended for both intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level: 3/5). Assembly requires basic skills in working with photo-etched parts and precise gluing, but it offers great satisfaction and clearly improves the quality of the final result.
