Aftermarket Upgrades for Aircraft and Helicopter Models

Aftermarket parts allow modelers to go beyond the limitations of standard kit components. These upgrades are used to enhance cockpit detail, engine depth, landing gear accuracy, and exterior features that are often simplified in injection-molded kits.

The majority of aftermarket products in this section are developed for aircraft and helicopter model kits, where fine detail and structural accuracy have a major impact on the final appearance. Selected categories also include upgrades for ships and ground vehicles, allowing for flexible use across different modeling projects.

Key Aftermarket Categories

Aftermarket upgrades are organized by function and installation area, making it easier to find the right parts for your project. Popular categories include engine and intake upgrades, cockpit and interior enhancements, landing gear components, and detailed exterior fittings.

  • Engine and exhaust upgrades
  • Cockpit, seats, and interior details
  • Landing gear, wheels, and wheel bays
  • Air intakes, jet nozzles, and propellers
  • Weapons, pylons, and external stores

Aircraft, Helicopter, and Extended Applications

While this section is aviation-focused, aftermarket parts are also available for ship and submarine models and armoured vehicles. These products are typically used to refine visible details, improve scale accuracy, and support advanced display builds.

Related Model Categories

Aftermarket parts are commonly used together with aircraft model kits and helicopter model kits. Choosing the right base kit first helps ensure compatibility with aftermarket upgrades.

Why Use Aftermarket Parts

Aftermarket components are ideal for modelers who want to improve realism, correct shape inaccuracies, or add fine details that are difficult to reproduce with paint alone. They are commonly used in advanced builds, competition models, and display projects where accuracy and finish quality matter most.
