RESKIT RSU48-0154 F-14A open exhaust nozzles for Hasegawa kit 1/48 – resin detail-up set

RESKIT RSU48-0154 is a high-quality set of resin "open" exhaust nozzles designed for the 1/48 scale Hasegawa F-14A Tomcat model kit. This product is intended for advanced modelers who seek the highest possible realism and detail in their replica of this legendary US Navy carrier-based fighter.

The F-14A Tomcat was mainly used by the US Navy during the Cold War as well as in later decades, from the 1970s until its retirement in 2006. It was renowned for participation in numerous combat operations, such as those over the Persian Gulf and in conflicts in the Middle East. These specialist "open" nozzles represent the typical TF30 engine setting while parked on the ground after shut-down—characteristic for hangar or carrier diorama scenes.

The set is entirely made from high-quality resin, ensuring exceptional detail and perfect accuracy to the original. The parts feature sharply defined details, such as rings and louvers, which cannot be recreated with standard plastic components included in the Hasegawa kits. Thanks to resin, the modeler achieves not only outstanding quality but also the opportunity to realize more demanding diorama and competition display projects.

The set does not include any metal or photo-etched parts; all components are cast in resin with extraordinary attention to detail and dimensional accuracy to the 1/48 scale. Integration with the Hasegawa kit is seamless, and the set is dedicated specifically to this model.
