In the world of aircraft modeling, the ability to express fine details is one of the true joys of the craft.

The “SF-260EA/D/EU Late Semi-Bubble Canopy (Plastic Model)” we introduce here is a masterpiece that showcases meticulous attention to detail throughout.

To replicate the semi-bubble canopy version, newly tooled clear parts have been developed, realistically capturing the curvature and transparency of the upper fuselage.

The canopy is one of the model’s highlights, and assembling it carefully will undoubtedly elevate the overall quality of the build.

The appeal of this kit is not limited to its appearance.

The included decals come in a total of five variations—Italy, Venezuela, Uruguay, and two from Belgium—allowing you to enjoy military aircraft specifications from various countries using a single model.

Even the time spent deciding which country's paint scheme or marking layout to use becomes part of the joy of model building.

Moreover, building and displaying multiple units will give you the feel of a small-scale air force exhibition.

The fine lines can be completed with confidence, making it a reliable ally for builders of all skill levels, from beginners to experts.

Improved work efficiency naturally leads to higher paint quality.
