This is a 1/72 scale plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the Japan Air Self-Defense Force's F-15J Eagle that received special paintwork during the Bushido Guardian joint exercise between the Japan Air Self-Defense Force and the Royal Australian Air Force, which was conducted from August 30 to September 15, 2023.

About the actual aircraft
The main fighter aircraft, the F-15J Eagle, is based on the US Air Force's F-15C, which began operational deployment in 1974, and has been equipped with unique equipment by the Japan Air Self-Defense Force. It is equipped with its own tactical electronic warfare system, J/TEWS, and also its own data link system. It began deployment to units in 1982 and still plays a main role in the air defense of Japan's skies. The Japan Air Self-Defense Force also conducts joint training to deepen cooperation and collaboration with other countries. From August to September 2023, training was conducted with the Royal Australian Air Force at Komatsu Air Base. Among the F-15Js that participated in the training from the Japan Air Self-Defense Force was a specially painted aircraft with markings paying tribute to the Royal Australian Air Force. The coloring is based on the national colors of Australia, green and gold, with the Australian flag painted on the left wing and the Japanese flag on the right wing. In addition, a kangaroo is painted on the left vertical stabilizer and the words "Bushido Guardian" are painted on the right.

About the Model
This model is a plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the special commemorative painted aircraft of the 303rd Squadron that participated in the Japan-Australia joint training exercise held from August 30 to September 15, 2023, based on Platz's 1/72 Japan Air Self-Defense Force F-15J Eagle, which has already garnered high praise from airplane model fans.
The Japanese and Australian flags painted on the left and right wings, and the kangaroo painted on the vertical stabilizer are reproduced with large decals. The decals are made by the high-quality Italian company Cartograf. Not only is the coloring eye-catching, but the reproduction of each part of the aircraft is already well-regarded by modelers. The markings unique to the special painted aircraft further enhance its appeal.
Platz also offers commemorative painted aircraft from the Japan-France joint training exercise and the Japan-Italy joint training exercise in its lineup. It would be fun to build and collect them all. When assembling, if you use the separately sold dedicated detail-up parts together, the realism of the finished product will be even greater.
