Special Hobby 1/48 Scale Aircraft Kit
Special Hobby SIAI‑Marchetti SF‑260EA/D/EU Late Bulged Canopy (1/48) – Item SH48215
This Special Hobby kit builds the late‑production SIAI‑Marchetti SF‑260 inspired by advanced trainer and light attack versions (EA/D/EU), featuring a distinctive bulged canopy for enhanced pilot visibility. With fine cockpit detail, optional weapon pylons, and accurate airframe lines, it’s a superb choice for both NATO and export operator markings.
- 1/48 scale injection‑moulded plastic kit (Special Hobby SH48215)
- Late bulged canopy for expanded field of view and cockpit detail
- Detailed cockpit: dual seating, instrument panels, control sticks, throttle consoles
- Underwing hardpoints for optional weapon loads (e.g. rockets, gun pods)
- Photo‑etched parts: seatbelt hardware, cockpit panels, navigation lights
- Clear parts for canopy, navigation lamps, and pitot tubes
Note, glue and paints not included; assembly requires attention to canopy fit and undercarriage alignment.
