Powered by two Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-100 turbofan engines, it is capable of speeds in the Mach 2.5 range. Review: Amazing Quality - I'm getting a bit started on this model scale building, and went for fighter planes since I have liked them a lot since I was a kid. I bought this as my 4th kit, and first on the 1:48 scale. While I noticed that this model has been repackaged with new box designs, it has maintained an amazing quality. Pieces gave me no fit problems, and rarely did I use putty to fill some gaps (although caused by my errors). I have to say that this kit is somewhat advanced, and it took me a while to complete, but I'm really happy with the result. I used panel liner, putty, and primer for this, and I really enjoyed building this! Highly recommend Review: Great quality - Great quality, waiting to build with son in a year or two. ## Features - This kit includes 3 external fuel tanks - Includes APG-63 radar system in removable front nose section - 1/48 Scale Aircraft ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000LFSPYC | | Age Range (Description) | Kid | | Art Craft Kit Type | Model Kit | | Brand | TAMIYA | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (384) | | Date First Available | July 2, 2007 | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04950344992416 | | Included Components | 3 external fuel tanks, APG-63 radar system in removable front nose section, metal landing gear legs, ample ordnance, and one pilot figure | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 10.6 ounces | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 10.7 x 4.6 x 15.93 inches | | Item model number | TM61029 | | Manufacturer | MMD Holdings, LLC | | Manufacturer recommended age | 18 years and up | | Material | Plastic | | Model Name | F 15C | | Number of Pieces | 120 | | Product Dimensions | 10.7 x 4.6 x 15.93 inches | | Seasons | All Seasons | | Size | 1/48 scale | | Special Feature | 1/48 scale, removable front nose section revealing APG-63 radar system, detailed cockpit and radar, external fuel tanks, various assembly options, metal landing gear legs, ample ordnance, pilot figure, multiple marking options | | Style | Modern | | Theme | Military | | UPC | 950344992410 797681941073 | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Kid - **Brand:** TAMIYA - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 10.7 x 4.6 x 15.93 inches - **Material:** Plastic - **Theme:** Military ## Images ![Tamiya Models Mcdonnell Douglas F-15C Eagle Model Kit - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81bUlBmHVfL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Quality *by E***O on October 22, 2024* I'm getting a bit started on this model scale building, and went for fighter planes since I have liked them a lot since I was a kid.

The Panels lines are nice, clean and deep. Nice, easy, and simple to put together. Overall, it's great. My only complaint is that the front section of the Top and Bottom half is consistently mismatched. The bottom is slightly less wider than the top half. I have three models and it appeared in all three. ## Frequently Bought Together - Tamiya Models Mcdonnell Douglas F-15C Eagle Model Kit - Tamiya 61098 1/48 Lockheed Martin F-16CJ Plastic Model Airplane Kit - Tamiya 87038 Extra Thin Cement Glue Fine Tip 40ml --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7838544-tamiya-models-mcdonnell-douglas-f-15c-eagle-model-kit](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/7838544-tamiya-models-mcdonnell-douglas-f-15c-eagle-model-kit) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
