• Product description:

Quickboost QB32331 F-104 Starfighter FOD Covers - Type I is a high-quality accessory set dedicated to F-104 Starfighter aircraft in the popular 1/32 scale, designed for Italeri kits. The product consists of a set of resin air intake covers (so-called FOD covers, i.e., Foreign Object Damage covers), which in reality are used at airports to protect the engine from damage caused by the ingress of foreign objects such as dust, stones, or birds while the aircraft is parked.

The F-104 Starfighter is a legendary supersonic jet fighter designed by the American company Lockheed in the 1950s and widely used by the air forces of many NATO countries—including the USA, Germany, Italy, Canada, Japan, and Spain. The period of intensive F-104 operation fell during the Cold War years (1958–2005), when the aircraft served as a fighter-bomber and interceptor at numerous air bases.

FOD covers were a common sight during the routine ground servicing of the F-104. Their presence on a model significantly enhances the realism of dioramas, especially those depicting parked aircraft, maintenance scenarios, or aircraft in closed hangars.

• Material: The elements are made from precisely cast resin, ensuring high detail and perfect fit for the Italeri 1/32 scale air intakes.
• Assembly difficulty: 1/5—assembly is very simple and does not require advanced modeling skills, making this product suitable for both beginners and advanced modelers.
• For whom: Quickboost QB32331 FOD Covers are an ideal choice for Cold War jet aircraft enthusiasts, model aviation hobbyists, and collectors who care about detail and realism in model displays.
• Advantages: The product increases the visual realism of the model, is easy to apply, and is a great addition to both standalone models and detailed airport dioramas.

This product is recommended for any modeler who values detail and authenticity when recreating the F-104 Starfighter aircraft.
