1/72 JASDF F-15J Aggressor [904 Black/White] - Model Kit

Japan Air Self-Defense Force 1/72 F-15J Aggressor \[904 Black/White\] – Model Kit

In 1981, the Japan Air Self-Defense Force established a “Flight Instruction Corps” to play a similar role, based on the U.S. Air Force and Navy’s tactical training unit, which imitates hypothetical enemy aircraft!

This helps improve the skills of fighter pilots. In 2016, the unit was moved to Komatsu Air Base and renamed the “Flight Instruction Group,” where it patrols and provides training to each JASDF fighter unit and warning and control unit. Since 1990, the F-15 has been the main aircraft used; the camouflage paint differs depending on the aircraft in order to clearly identify friend or foe in simulated air battles, and it is popular among fans as an aggressor aircraft. This model kit from Fine Molds builds into a single-seat J type that’s been in use since May 2007. The camouflage pattern is based on a previously released model, although the gray of the previous release has been changed to pure black. This aircraft has been in service for a shorter time than the other aircraft, dropping these two colors at the end of August 2008 and leaving the unit soon after.
