[About the actual machine]
The flagship aircraft, the F-15J Eagle, is based on the U.S. Air Force's F-15C, which began deployment in 1974, but is equipped with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force's own tactical electronic warfare system, J/TEWS, as well as a similarly unique data link system.
Deployment of the aircraft began in 1982, and it continues to play a key role in Japan's air defense today.
At air shows held at bases that operate the F-15J, it is common to see commemorative painted aircraft made for display flights.
At the Nyutabaru Air Fest held at the Nyutabaru Air Base of the Japan Air Self-Defense Force on December 4, 2022, markings were applied to the vertical stabilizer, the back of the aircraft, and the tanks, featuring a large silhouette of Miyamoto Musashi holding two swords on the tail, attracting attention.
[About the model]

This kit includes a set of 3D printed parts that allow for intricate detailing, recreating the engine nozzle at the rear of the aircraft.
