Description: Hobby Master 1:72 Air Power Series HA4563 Boeing F-15SG Strike Eagle Diecast Model RSAF 142nd Sqn Gryphon, #8316, Paya Lebar AB, Singapore, 2019Limited EditionRare and Collectible 1:72 Scale Length WidthBoeing F-15SG Strike Eagle 10.75" 7.25" The Republic of Singapore Air Force has two squadrons of F-15SG, 142nd Sqn "Gryphon" and 149th "Shikra" (Sparrow Hawk) based at Paya Lebar, AB. The F-15SG is an advanced variant of the F-15E Strike Eagle and can perform air-to-air and air-to-ground attack missions in all weather conditions. The 142nd Squadron's motto is "Honor and Glory" and the Gryphon chosen as their mascot because its body parts are those of kings of the animal world. The squadron had been disbanded but reactivated in 2016 when the F-15SGs arrived. Boeing F-15SG Strike Eagle 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.
