3D Printed Parts for Detail Up!

T-4 Canopy Open Set (For Hasegawa, Standard Operational Configuration)

Fully recreated 3D detailed cockpit for the T-4!
The canopy frame is intricately designed.

The cockpit features detailed reproductions of the hood, HUD, and the rear bulkhead, all carefully matched to the real aircraft.
The link mechanism for opening and closing the canopy is designed to reflect the open canopy state.
Additionally, parts such as the cockpit side canopy opening lever and lighting, which are visible when the canopy is open, are included.
The canopy frame is designed with hinges, allowing you to set the canopy in the open position.
The locking mechanism of the canopy, an important point for the open position, is faithfully reproduced both on the frame and the cockpit edge.
The wiring and pipes connecting the cockpit to the canopy frame are also shaped to match the open canopy configuration.
The explosive charge lines for the canopy are added for extra detail.
For the standard operational configuration, curtains covering the rear seat during instrument flight training and the rails for spreading the curtains are also included.

Note: The cockpit tabs and instrument panel use some modified parts from the kit to reduce costs.

The HUD lens/mirror and canopy blast shields are made from transparent UV resin, but due to material properties, they are not completely clear. It’s recommended to replace them with transparent plastic sheets or aftermarket clear parts.
