Cockpit set and Seats for aircraft model Sukhoi Su-34 Scale 1:72 Metallic Details MDR7235

Metallic Details MDR7235 is a cockpit-and-seats upgrade for the Sukhoi Su-34 in 1/72, combining photo-etched and resin parts. The set is intended to refine the visible cockpit area under the canopy, where thinner parts and sharper edges can improve the overall “scale look”.

This is an aftermarket detailing set for Su-34 aircraft model kits. The base kit is not included.

The Su-34 has a prominent cockpit section, so small interior improvements can stay noticeable even on a closed-canopy build. Keep the selection and placement of parts aligned with your chosen kit’s cockpit layout.

For modelers: plan the build in subassemblies: prepare and prime resin parts first, then add photo-etched pieces after basic cockpit cleanup. Dry-fit the seats early to confirm height and canopy clearance, and adjust mounting points before painting. Use minimal CA for metal parts and re-check alignment as you go.

FAQ

Will this set fit any 1/72 Su-34 kit?

It is intended for 1/72 Su-34 builds, but cockpit tubs and seat mounting points vary by manufacturer. Dry-fit key parts (especially seats) and adjust contact points as needed.

What glue works for the photo-etched parts?

CA glue is typically used for photo-etched metal parts. Apply very small amounts and confirm alignment before it sets.

What is a practical order for painting and installation?

Prime and paint resin parts first, then add photo-etched parts once the base cockpit surfaces are prepared. Install the seats late to reduce handling damage and to keep canopy clearance checks easy.
