Hasegawa 02484 F-15DJ Eagle 'Pacific Skies 2024' 1/72 – scale model kit

The precision plastic model kit Hasegawa 02484 depicts the exemplary Japanese twin-seat trainer/fighter jet F-15DJ Eagle in the limited edition “Pacific Skies 2024,” produced in the popular 1/72 scale. The model is based on the original aircraft manufactured by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries for the Japan Air Self-Defense Force (JASDF), an advanced variant of the American McDonnell Douglas F-15, professionally adapted to train pilots of the most modern air-superiority fighters.

F-15DJ Eagle entered service alongside the development of Japanese aviation in the modern era – from the 1990s to the present day – forming a significant part of the country's multi-layered air defense system. Aircraft of this version regularly participate in the prestigious international military exercises “Pacific Skies,” held in the Asia-Pacific region, where they play a representative role and strengthen cooperation among allied air forces.
