Red Fox Studio 1/32 F/A-18E Super Hornet 3D Instrument Panel

Give your Trumpeter 1/32 Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet cockpit greater depth and definition with this Quick Set 3D instrument panel from Red Fox Studio. Reference RFSQS-32040 is a coloured resin accessory designed to enhance the kit cockpit with precisely rendered instruments, gauges, displays, controls and raised panel features.

The three-dimensional construction creates a more convincing surface than a flat instrument panel. Individual buttons, controls and display areas are clearly defined, while the finish recreates the reflective appearance of glazed bezels. Its coloured presentation provides an impressive foundation for the cockpit and reduces the intricate painting needed to distinguish every small element.

Recommended for the Trumpeter Super Hornet

This 1/32 scale instrument panel is recommended for the Trumpeter F/A-18E Super Hornet kit. It provides a focused cockpit enhancement for modellers seeking additional precision and visual depth without recreating the numerous controls and displays by hand.

The resin material is minimally flexible, allowing careful adjustment while positioning the panel. It can also be gently sanded where required to refine the fit. Test the component inside the cockpit before applying adhesive, then make any small adjustments needed to achieve accurate placement and alignment.

Straightforward Installation and Custom Finishing

The instrument panel can be secured using cyanoacrylate or PVA model glue. Once its fit and position have been confirmed, apply the selected adhesive carefully and install the component within the cockpit. This accessible process makes the upgrade suitable for beginners while offering the sharply rendered detail sought by experienced aircraft modellers.

The coloured surface can be further customised using oil-based or acrylic paints. Carefully applied washes, shading and highlights can help coordinate the panel with the surrounding cockpit finish and emphasise selected raised features. Browse the acrylic paints range for additional finishing options.
