Under construction: McDonnell Douglas F-15B "Eagle" Israeli Air Force

The first new build for 2016.

It's the McDonnell Douglas F-15B "Eagle" from Great Wall Hobbies.
The kit I bought was supplied with the correction sets. So I have to take a close watch on the parts I use.
I decided to do an early F-15B Isreali one , due to the fact that the other decal sheets are for later F-15 models, and no AIM-120's were supplied with the kit. For the first time I will leave the radar and some avionic bays open, just need to buy a couple of Israeli RBF tags. I hope it will turn out great.
