1/48 Avionix F-14B cockpit - good for an "A"?
Posted by Inguzi on Sunday, May 31, 2015 12:27 AM

Hi

I am planning a build of a F-14A NSAWC adversary. The plane was never upgraded to "bombcat" specs. 

I have an Avionix F-14B resin cockpit on hand. Would it be correct for the F-14A?

Thanks in advance

As long as the B cockpit has the round "fishbowl" screen in the back, they were virtually identical. There were some minor differences, but in that scale you'd be hard-pressed to see the differences.

The front cockpit had some minor instrument changes due to the change in engines.  The only change for the back seat in most -B's was that the threat warning receivers from the -A were removed and replaced with a display on the right console for the new AN/ALR-67 radar warning receiver.
