It is equipped with its own tactical electronic warfare system, J\/TEWS, and 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. In recent years, the Japan Air Self-Defense Force has been actively conducting joint training to deepen cooperation and collaboration with various countries around the world. In August 2023, training was conducted with the Italian Air Force at Komatsu Air Base. Among the F-15J aircraft participating in the training from the Japan Air Self-Defense Force was a specially painted aircraft with markings welcoming the Italian Air Force, which was visiting Japan for the first time. The streamlined design, featuring colors inspired by the Italian and Japanese flags, was centered around the logo commemorating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Italian Air Force on the left vertical stabilizer, and the fuel tanks under the wings were painted with \"Welcome to Komatsu Air Base\" in English on the right and the slogan \"100th anniversary of the founding of the Italian Air Force and soaring into the future\" in Italian on the left tank, welcoming the Italian Air Force on its first visit to Japan. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the model\u003cbr\u003eThis model is a plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the special commemorative painted aircraft of the 306th Squadron that participated in the Japan-Italy joint training conducted at Komatsu Air Base in August 2023, based on Platz's 1\/72 Japan Air Self-Defense Force F-15J Eagle, which has already garnered high praise from aircraft model enthusiasts. The streamlines painted on the left and right wings and the back of the fuselage, the logo commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Italian Air Force on the vertical stabilizer, and even the lettering on the fuel tanks mounted under the wings are all faithfully reproduced with large decals. The decals are made by the high-quality Italian company Cartograf. Not only are the eye-catching streamlines and the lettering on the tanks impressive, but the reproduction of each part of the fuselage is already highly regarded by modelers. The markings unique to this special paint scheme further enhance its appeal. Platz also offers commemorative paint schemes for the Franco-Japanese joint training and the Australia-Japan joint training. It would be fun to build them all. Furthermore, if you use the separately sold dedicated detail-up parts in conjunction with the assembly, the realism of the finished product will be even greater. \u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n ■Product Specifications\u003cbr\u003e\r\n Manufacturer: Platz\u003cbr\u003e\r\n Item No: AC-83\u003cbr\u003e\r\n Scale: 1\/72\u003cbr\u003e\r\n JAN: 4545782098969\u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\n ■Notes\u003cbr\u003e\r\n ・Please prepare plastic model tools for assembly. *Please use paint for plastic models. \u003cbr\u003e・Release date, price, product name, etc. may change without notice.
