Mikoyan MiG-25, Seat Belts Scale 1:72 Photoetch Metallic Details MD7215 - For model kit Aircraft

Metallic Details MD7215 is a photo-etched seat belts set for the Mikoyan MiG-25 in 1/72. In this scale, the cockpit opening is small, so belt edges and buckle shapes help add definition to the seat area.

The set includes one photo-etched board (22 × 17 mm). This is an upgrade set only (the aircraft model kit is not included).

The MiG-25 family includes multiple sub-variants, and cockpit/seat details can vary by build choice. Treat belt layout and attachment points as kit- and version-dependent, and match them to your selected seat and cockpit parts.

For modelers: before painting, gently form the belts to the seat contours so they sit over cushions and side frames. Test-fit the seat in the cockpit tub first, then add belts to reduce clearance issues with cockpit sidewalls. Prime the metal lightly, paint belts separately, and attach with small amounts of adhesive to keep parts aligned.

FAQ

Will this seat belt set work with any 1/72 MiG-25 kit?

It is intended as a universal upgrade for 1/72 MiG-25 builds, but seat shapes and cockpit widths can vary. Compare the seat parts in your kit and adjust belt placement as needed.

Should I paint the belts before installation?

Many builders prime and paint the belts on the fret or after gentle shaping, then touch up after installation. This helps keep edges defined and reduces paint build-up in small buckles.

When is the best time to add belts during assembly?

Finish the seat build and test-fit it in the cockpit first. Add the belts after you are satisfied with seat position and clearance, then install the completed seat as one subassembly.
