The kit includes a rocket booster, launch pad, ground base, and ramp for boarding the aircraft. It reproduces the system that launched the F-104G at Edward Air Force Base in the United States in 1966. The F-104G installed on the launch pad is compatible with Hasegawa's, so if you install an F-104 made by another company, it may be necessary to modify it. The rocket booster and launch pad are 3D printed parts, the base is a laser cut acrylic plate, and the ramp is a multi-material model made of cardboard parts laser cut. *3D printed parts are made from UV-curable resin using a stereolithographic 3D printer. Each part is stacked on top of a support called a raft. Please use nippers or a design knife to carefully separate the parts from the raft. There are some traces of lamination left on the surface. *Laser processed parts are covered with soot generated during laser processing. Please clean and assemble to avoid deforming the parts. *Adhesive, tools, paint, etc. are required separately for assembly. *Please note that this is not a finished product.
