The Eduard 49740 MB ejection seat handles 1/48 set is a high-quality accessory designed for 1/48 scale models equipped with the famous Martin-Baker ejection seats, used in numerous military aircraft around the world. This product is dedicated to modelers who wish to enhance their replicas with realistic details characteristic of MB seats as used in aircraft such as the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II, Panavia Tornado, or Hawker Hunter.

Martin-Baker ejection seats have been used since the late 1940s, throughout the Cold War up to the present day in the air forces of the United Kingdom, West Germany, Italy, the United States, Israel, and many other NATO and partner countries. The ejection handles were some of the key components of the rescue seats, responsible for the rapid and reliable release of the pilot in critical combat and training situations.

Eduard 49740 is a set containing highly detailed, photo-etched ejection handles made from precisely tempered metal. The photo-etching technology allows for an exceptionally accurate texture and shape, even in the smallest parts of the set. The details are laser-colored, which greatly facilitates their application and contributes to the realistic appearance of the finished model. Eduard’s precision ensures that the handles accurately imitate the original "yellow-black" safety markings, consistent with the patterns used in real Martin-Baker seats.
