HansReggelsen Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 (edited) Hi! i have been so lucky as to have obtained Eduard's F-15A/C kit (Kit # 1176 - Academy plastic with all the Eduard icing on top) The instructions give several markings options including a USAF F-15A from 1988 However it doesn't have the Turkey-feathers? I was under the impression that the turkey-feathers first were removed with the'C'-model? Were they'retro-removed' from the 'A' model? I know they stayed on the IDF and JASDF for a longer period of time. Cheers and thanks in advance!
