Hasegawa X48-6 U.S. NAVY PILOT DECK CREW SET C (1/48) – Plastic set of US Navy deck crew figures

The Hasegawa X48-6 U.S. NAVY PILOT DECK CREW SET C in 1:48 scale is an excellent choice for modelers interested in realistically recreating aircraft carrier scenes from the Cold War and modern eras. This set of figures features pilots and deck crew of the United States Navy (US Navy), capturing characteristic poses and uniforms typical for American aircraft carriers from the 1960s to the present day.

The kit components are made of high-quality plastic, ensuring a high level of detail such as gloves, helmets with goggles, life vests, and tools that are distinctive for specific deck roles. Thanks to this, modelers can create an eye-catching diorama featuring popular carrier aircraft such as the F-14 Tomcat, F/A-18 Hornet, or E-2 Hawkeye, perfectly reflecting the atmosphere of working on an aircraft carrier. The set does not include glue or paints, allowing for individual color customization according to historical markings and your own creative vision.
