Hello all, Here is my first entry for this GB; A 1/48 Revell F-15E Strike Eagle in the markings of the 391st Fighter Squadron, the 'Bold Tigers' during Operation Enduring Freedom in late 2001. The kit: The lovely looking plastic: Aftermarket: I'll be using the Wolfpack Designs OEF update set, Two Bobs 'Mountain Home Avengers' decals, Pavla ejection seats, Two Mikes cover set and Eduard Remove Before Flight tags. The contents of the Wolfpack set: Reference material: The jet will be marked as 90-0227 which was delivered to the USAF in July 1991. The jet was deployed to Al Jaber, Kuwait in early October 2001. During 3 months of operations, the jet dropped 2x GBU-10's, 2x MK-82's and 30x GBU-12's. I plan to load the jet with a 'typical' CAS set up: 9x GBU-12's, 2x AIM-120's, 2x AIM-9's and 2x fuel tanks. These will be sourced form the spares. Been looking to build this jet for a while as I managed to get the decals for a bargain $3 about 2 years ago! Dave
