The 1/48 Metallic Details Martin-Baker GRU-7A Ejection Seat (#MDR48217) is a highly detailed aftermarket upgrade designed for 1/48 scale jet aircraft models equipped with the Martin-Baker GRU-7A ejection seat. The set includes precision 3D-printed parts that allow modelers to build two complete seats, providing a far more accurate and finely detailed alternative to standard kit components.
The parts reproduce the distinctive structure of the GRU-7A rocket-assisted ejection seat, including the seat frame, headrest assembly, and visible cockpit details commonly seen in naval fighter aircraft. High-resolution 3D printing provides crisp surface detail and scale-accurate thickness, making the seats ideal for open cockpit displays or highly detailed aircraft builds.
The Martin-Baker GRU-7A was developed as a naval variant of the Martin-Baker Mk.7 ejection seat, designed for use in high-performance U.S. Navy aircraft. Known for its reliability and advanced escape capabilities, the system provided safe pilot ejection across a wide range of flight conditions and became a key safety component in several Cold War and modern jet aircraft.
Aircraft equipped with GRU-7A or related Martin-Baker Mk.7 seat systems include:
• EWR VJ 101
• Grumman A-6 Intruder
• Grumman F-9 Cougar
• Grumman F-14 Tomcat
• Lockheed F-104 Starfighter
• McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II
• Northrop F-5
• Northrop Grumman EA-6B Prowler
• Vought F-8 Crusader
Set Features
• Designed for 1/48 scale aircraft models
• Includes parts to build 2 Martin-Baker GRU-7A ejection seats
• High-resolution 3D-printed components
• Accurate representation of the rocket-assisted GRU-7A seat
• Ideal for Cold War and modern naval jet cockpit detailing
This upgrade set is perfect for modelers looking to enhance the cockpit realism of 1/48 scale jet aircraft, providing highly detailed seats that become a focal point of the cockpit interior.
