| Hobby Master 1/72 scale HA4528: Mitsubishi F-15DJ Eagle #92-8068 of the Hiko Kyodotai (Tactical Fighter Training Squadron), JASDF, Nyutabaru AB, Japan, 2013. Production run of 1,000 models. Length 10.75 inches Wingspan 7.25 inches The JASDF (Japan Air Self-Defense Force) Hiko Kyodotai (Tactical Fighter Training Squadron) is a dedicated aggressor squadron based at Nyutabaru Air Base in Miyazaki Prefecture. The unit provides air combat training for most of the JASDF's combat units. Something of an elite unit, the Hiko Kyodotai predominately operates the two-seat Mitsubishi F-15DJ Eagle, although some single seat F-15Js are also on strength. Most of the F-15s are painted in very colourful camouflage schemes, with each aircraft seemingly carrying unique colours. Aircraft of the Hiko Kyodotai regularly deploy to bases throughout Japan, in order to assist in the training of the regular squadrons. 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. Following reviews of proposals, the United States Air Force selected McDonnell Douglas's design in 1969 to meet the service's need for a dedicated air superiority fighter. Since entering service in 1976, it is among the most successful modern fighters, with over 100 victories and no losses in aerial combat, with the majority of the kills by the Israeli Air Force. |
