F-15EX
Posted by jimbot58 on Wednesday, June 9, 2021 10:55 PM

I have been hearing about the latest improved version of the F-15, which is the F-15EX. I know there may not be a huge amount of external differences, other than the second set of external weapons stations and perhaps if the conformal fuel tanks may be different, I don't know. I am just wondering from a modelers point of view, are there any kit manufactures that may be planning a version of this edition? Has anyone heard anything? I don't have to have one, but would be interesting to display one with the other two kits I have displayed, a "C" and an "E" version.

Thanks

On my workbench now:

It's all about classic cars now!

Why can't I find the "Any" key on my keyboard?

If anyone does that version, i would guess Hasegawa, they have a tendancy to produce every variabnt of any given subject.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

From the pictures I've seen, an EX is basically an E with the missiles tucked inside the CFT's. 
Should be easy enough to scribe the door outlines on the tanks and call it good. 
But we know there are folks who will want to build the entire weapons bay, so grab you a Revell F-22 and scrounge the bays off it?
