F-104A (Late) Update Set (for Kinetic)

This set contains the parts needed to build an accurate late type F-104A from the Kinetic F-104A/C kit. "Late" means that it's an airframe that was converted to the upward firing C-2 seat. Therefore you can either use the kit supplied seat or one of the various available aftermarket options.

The parts (all 3D printed) in this set are:

• lower fuselage insert piece with different shell ejector port and vent louvres
• aft fuselage panel with staggered hot air vents (not needed for all F-104A) with cutting mask template
• "L"-shaped reinforcement doublers for the fuselage/cockpit area
• detailed main instrument panel
• control stick/grip with better detail and better proportions
• throttle lever with more detail and better proportions
• aft canopy brace/bracket (two supplied)

For suitable decals, I recommend Caracal's new sheet CD48202: 1/48 USAF F-104A/C Starfighter

Attention: the vinyl cutting template in this set has been too small! Due to a file mixup an earlier, smaller version sneaked into the production file. This error is corrected and new templates cut. All orders will have the new template. If you ordered previously and wish to obtain the corrected template please get in touch and I will include one in your next order.
