Detailed aft cockpit bulkhead for 1/48 MH‑53J/M Pave Low helicopter models. This 3D printed part replaces the kit bulkhead with a highly detailed wall between the cockpit and cabin, ideal for open‑door and well‑lit cockpit builds.
 
Full product description
 
This Black Ops 3D part represents the aft cockpit bulkhead used on MH‑53J/M Pave Low helicopters in 1/48 scale. It is designed to replace the simplified kit bulkhead and add wiring, panels, and structural detail to the wall that separates the cockpit from the cabin.
The bulkhead is 3D printed in high resolution to capture the “busy” look seen in reference photos and walkarounds of Pave Low cockpits. It is especially effective for models displayed with open side doors and a well‑lit cockpit where the aft wall is clearly visible behind the seats and consoles.
Key features
1/48 aft cockpit bulkhead for MH‑53J/M Pave Low model helicopters.
Replaces the kit bulkhead with sharper, more accurate structural and panel detail.
High‑resolution 3D printed part that responds well to washes, dry‑brushing, and chipping.
Ideal for conversions of CH‑53 kits into MH‑53J/M Pave Low builds, where cockpit detail is a focal point.
 
Compatibility
Designed for 1/48 MH‑53 Pave Low projects based on common CH‑53 kits (such as the Revell CH‑53G used in many Pave Low conversions). Minor trimming or shim work may be required depending on the base kit and conversion set used.
 
Installation and use
Test‑fit the bulkhead between the cockpit and cabin sections of your 1/48 MH‑53 build before committing to glue. Adjust or thin nearby kit parts as needed to accommodate the printed wall. Once satisfied with the fit, glue in place with CA, then paint in your chosen cockpit colors (often dark grey or black with lighter scuffs and chipping). Detail with placards, wiring, and weathering to bring out the relief.
