The Hawker Typhoon Mk.IB is a symbol of British ground-attack support during World War II. These aircraft were used, among others, during the Normandy Invasion and in battles on the Western Front, where their powerful armament and resilience made them some of the most effective Allied attack aircraft. The Aires set is designed to replicate the cockpit of the distinctive "bubble canopy" version, which provided pilots with better visibility and increased comfort.

The product includes a complete, hyper-realistic cockpit interior – seats with harnesses, instrument panel, side consoles, levers, and numerous small components.
