The F-15SA is an advanced variant of the F-15 Strike Eagle, developed for Saudi Arabia. It features upgraded avionics, fly-by-wire controls, and AESA radar. With enhanced maneuverability, modernized electronic warfare systems, and increased weapon capacity, it's one of the most capable multirole fighters in the world. In 2018, F-15SA #12-1002 featured distinctive test markings during its evaluation and testing phases. These markings are typically seen on aircraft undergoing trials to validate their performance, systems, and capabilities before being delivered to the customer.
Designed to meet US Air Force requirements for an air superiority fighter to replace the F-4 Phantom, the F-15 Eagle first flew on July 27, 1972. Following reviews of proposals, the United States Air Force selected McDonnell Douglas's design in 1969 to meet the service's need for a dedicated air superiority fighter. Since entering service in 1976, it is among the most successful modern fighters, with over 100 victories and no losses in aerial combat, with the majority of the kills by the Israeli Air Force. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
Hobby Master's 1:72 scale F-15 is produced with a high metal content using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques. The model features near seamless construction as seen on all Hobby Master products, and this is particularly evident with the tight-fitting conformal fuel tanks present on the F-15E variant. Separate open and closed canopy and speed brakes are included, yielding uncompromising detail that functional hinges would lack at this scale. Other fine features include a detailed cockpit interior, a variety of ordnance and drop tanks appropriate to the paint-scheme and landing gear that constructed as completed subassemblies for easy installation.
