One of the truly great combat aircraft of the post war era, the McDonnell Douglas F-15A was a single seat, all weather air superiority fighter, which at the time, was one of the most expensive military programs in history. Designed around the fighter pilot with the intention of producing an aircraft which would allow him to dominate the battlefield, the F-15 was known as the Ultimate MiG slayer, as it provided the USAF with a fighter which was without equal in the worlds skies and became the aircraft against which all future fighter designs would be judged. Despite being in service for more than forty years, the F-15 is still a formidable combat aircraft and is even being considered for further upgrade to keep it in front line service for many years to come. Boeing, Douglas, McDonnell Douglas, North American Aviation, A-4 Skyhawk, AH-64 Apache Longbow, B-17 Flying Fortress, B-25 Mitchell, C-47, DC-3, F-4 Phantom, P-51 Mustang, their distinctive logos, product markings, and trade dress are all trademarks of The Boeing Company.

Takes some work to get looking good
My first time doing one, Im not sure if they're all like this but takes a bit of work to make some of the parts fit together and smooth joints. Very therapeutic though.

Disappointing
Sold as a starter set, it does not give any pleasure in wanting to complete the model it lacks the usual finish you can expect from other members of the Airfix range, if this is your introduction to airfix you will be disappointed.. Supplied with poor quality , ill-fitting plastic components are further let down but poor instructions. It should be noted that your supplied with the option to chose either one or two seater variant but only supplied for the instructions for the one seater variant. if your planning on including the optional steps you need precision tools to complete the job. As for the supplied paints they've been in storage for so long they had gone off The glue and the brushes being the best part of this kit. This is clearly a reboxing of an earlier model which could easily lead to confusion if you've purchased other started sets , the kit does not command the 20£ price tag. On a side note a better introduction to Airfix would be the Harrier GR9 Starter set, similarly priced but easily 4 times the quality of this model.

Dried paint, sad child
I bought this as a Christmas present for my son, we started to put it together but when it came to painting, found the paints had dried out so we completed the model and I will now buy him new paints to use. Really disappointed with Airfix/humbrol
