Hasegawa 1/48 F-15C USAF Aggressor

May 18, 2020 · in Aviation · · 16 · 2.6K

Hello!

I've always liked 's scheme for the Eagles, so as soon I got a kit, I went after the right decal set for this scale. They're from Two Bobs and everything else is OOB. I scratch built the ACMI pod from a AIM-9, so this bird is in the normal configuration for ACM training, with the pod and a captive AIM-9.

Kit was ok, except for the rear compartment lid that had to be well sanded so the canopy could fit closed, even tough is not perfect.

Hope you enjoy!

Cheers

  1. Hey George, that’s a big plane for 1/48...I so rarely build jets (my last was an academy F-16 back in 1997) that I tend to forgot their size when comparing to WW2 stuff. That’s a great looking model, solid paint work and much more interesting than the usual boring greys. What kit is that one?

  2. Thank you! This is the Hasegawa F-15C (kit number 07249).

  3. Nice work. I’ve got one of those in the stash. Thanks for the inspiration!
