About this model
The model represents Eder's Hellcat during his service with VS-1 Squadron aboard USS Cabot in 1945. It is finished in a midnight blue camouflage scheme with white Star markings on the fuselage and wings, and the VS-1 squadron insignia carried on the tail fin.
Beneath the cockpit window the model reproduces Eder's personal kill tallies, with black Swastikas marking Luftwaffe victories and Japanese flags for his Pacific successes. Further detail includes black gun barrels and instrument panel markings, a dark green moulded cockpit interior, silver wheel hubs and pitot tubes, and blue propeller spinners with yellow tips.
