Miles M.52 - questions about the A+V Models 1/72 kit

[Hobbes]

I've just started building this kit. It contains a few parts I can't identify:


Some of this PE fret looks like a seat belt, but what are parts 2-5?


and what are these wires? Brake lines?

None of these are mentioned in the instructions...

2 looks like a compresion link for the nose U/C
3 ditto for the main U/C legs
4 an early type of ejection seat handle, in this case more likely for ejecting the forward capsule.
5 I can not see 5.
As to the wires I have no idea.

5 is the tall bit on the far right of the fret.

Looks very like a pitot/air sensor, tube.

I'd say the fret has nothing to do with the M.52.

I've got the kit somewhere in the loft at me Mam's (I *think*...) and IIRC, most A&V kits have a generic etch fret.  TBH,

I'd be more worried about the thick, railway sleeper type wings.
