Hobby Master 1:72 Air Power Series HA4519 Boeing F-15E Strike Eagle Diecast Model USAF 366th FW, 391st FS Bold Tigers, #92-0366 Billy the Kid, Iraq, Operation Inherent Resolve April 2019. Boeing F-15E Strike Eagle. In October 2014 a Combined Joint Task Force called Operation Inherent Resolve was established to carry out military actions against ISIS in Iraq and Syria. Rotate aircraft to ensure there is an appropriate amount of air support to accomplish the mission. Between October 2018 and April 2019 the 391st FS “Bold Tigers” / 366th FW were assigned to “OIR”. The 391st sent 18 F-15Es to the Middle East and each aircraft had a distinct nickname. F-15E 92-0366 wore “Billy the Kid”. Designed to meet US Air Force requirements for an air superiority fighter to replace the F-4 Phantom, the F-15 Eagle first flew on July 27, 1972. The Air Force needed a fighter that could engage long range targets, a skill the F-4 did not possess. The F-15 has a pulse-Doppler radar system, which can track small high-speed targets up to 120 nautical miles away and can lock its missile onto targets up to 50 nautical miles away. With more than 100 aerial combat victories, the F-15 is said to be one of the most successful modern fighters. It is expected to remain in service until 2025. Hobby Masters 1:72 scale F-15 is produced with a high metal content using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques. The model features near seamless construction as seen on all Hobby Master products, and this is particularly evident with the tight-fitting conformal fuel tanks present on the F-15E variant. Separate open and closed canopy and speed brakes are included, yielding uncompromising detail that functional hinges would lack at this scale. Other fine features include a detailed cockpit interior, a variety of ordnance and drop tanks appropriate to the paint-scheme and landing gear that constructed as completed subassemblies for easy installation.
