It is widely considered as the very best tactical jet fighter in production.
Seymour Johnson

The base is named after an US NAVY test pilot who lost his life in 1941. It is the only USAF air base named after a NAVY pilot in USA. Seymour Johnson is considered of great strategic importance for the US Air Force. For the 75th Anniversary of the 4th Fighter Wing, a demo camouflage was applied on F-15E Strike Eagle. 1942-2017 was written on the wings, in addition to feathers and eagle head applied over the dark painted strike fighter. The plane used was AF 87-189 and was flown in that anniversary camouflage in 2017 & 2018.

This mask set is based on G.W.H. kit and is designed in such a way, that both outside or inside masking elements can be used. It can be used with other quarter scale F-15E kits.
