■ Product Introduction
[Kit features and contents]
This model kit, while compact in size with a total length of 132mm and a wingspan of 82mm, faithfully reproduces the powerful silhouette and precise details of the F-15E Strike Eagle.
This is a full-scale kit consisting of a total of 70 parts, and even the finest details such as the surface panel lines and rivets are meticulously reproduced.
The included weapons are a particularly noteworthy feature of this kit.
Includes a cockpit with ejection seat, detailed landing gear, two underwing tanks, four Sidewinder missiles, two GBU-10 bombs and two GBU-15 bombs.
The appeal of this kit is that by freely combining these weapons, you can recreate the aircraft's posture in various mission settings.
The included decal set includes markings to recreate the "10,000-Hour Commemoration" F-15E (registration number AF 89-0487) belonging to the 335th Fighter Squadron, which deployed to Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan in January 2013.
[What is the F-15E Strike Eagle?]
The F-15E Strike Eagle is a multirole fighter-bomber derived from the F-15 Eagle, which was originally developed in the 1970s as a pure air superiority fighter.
It first flew on December 11, 1986, and entered official service in 1989.
The F-15E is characterized by its excellent air-to-air combat capabilities and ground attack capabilities.
The aircraft is a two-seater, with a pilot and a Weapon Systems Officer (WSO) in the back seat to operate the complex ground attack systems.
While it looks similar to the F-15, over 60% of its internal structure has been redesigned and strengthened to withstand low-altitude flight and heavy weaponry loads.
Its maximum takeoff weight is six tons greater than that of the F-15, and it can carry up to 11 tons of armament.
This payload is an astonishing 2 tons more than the B-29 strategic bomber, known as the "Fortress of the Sky" during World War II.
[Performance in actual combat]
The F-15E first saw combat in the 1991 Gulf War and proved its outstanding performance.
It has a top speed of Mach 2.5 (at high altitude) and is armed with air-to-air missiles such as the AIM-9 Sidewinder and AIM-120 AMRAAM (Improved Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile), as well as an internal 20mm M61 Vulcan Gatling cannon.
For ground attacks, it can employ a wide range of weapon systems, including the Pubway and JDAM series of laser-guided bombs and the AGM-65 Maverick missile.
The F-15E's unique ability to fly long distances to its target, destroy enemy positions, and return while fighting is a hallmark of the aircraft.
Additionally, conformal fuel tanks have been added to both sides of the aircraft, minimizing air resistance while increasing fuel capacity and expanding the aircraft's operational radius.
[About model assembly]
The assembly difficulty level is considered intermediate, making it suitable for modelers aged 10 and over.
The instructions are clearly written and guide you through the assembly process step by step.
This compact 1/144 scale is ideal for those with limited display space or those with multiple aircraft model collections.
