Grumman F-14A Tomcat open Exhaust Nozzles for Tamiya kit (3D Printed) Scale 1:48 ResKit RSU48-0389 for Aircraft Model Kit

ResKit RSU48-0389 Open Exhaust Nozzles provide a detailed replacement set for Grumman F-14A Tomcat aircraft model kits in 1/48. The set depicts the open-position nozzle look and focuses on crisp petal edges and deeper interior structure to make the rear engine area read more realistically.

Aftermarket 3D printed accessory intended for aircraft scale model kits and miniature replicas. Precision parts support accurate 1/48 scale aircraft model builds and help refine one of the most visible sections on the Tomcat’s rear fuselage.

On the F-14A, the exhaust nozzles sit close to the tailplane area and remain highly noticeable from most viewing angles. An open-nozzle configuration is a common display choice and adds depth around the engine tunnels and heat-stained metal finishes.

For modelers: remove supports carefully and dry-fit each nozzle to the fuselage openings before painting. Prime lightly to preserve the fine petal detail, and check that both nozzles sit at the same depth to keep the rear view symmetrical.

Is this set intended for the F-14A only?

This set is made for the F-14A configuration as listed. For other Tomcat variants, nozzle types can differ, so match the set to your kit version.

Do I need to modify the kit parts?
