Trumpeter 01624 Su-15 Flagon-A Detailed Cold War Interceptor Kit

The Su-15, commonly referred to by NATO as the "Flagon", was developed in the 1950s and remained active into the early 1990s. Known for its high-speed interception capability, often above Mach 2.4, the design features mid-mounted delta wings and twin turbojets that supported its air defence missions.

What the Kit Includes

The Trumpeter 1:72 rendition of the Su-15 Flagon-A includes 100 plastic components designed to capture the aircrafts characteristic lines, including the rounded nose and bubble canopy. Finished dimensions are 320.24mm in length and 118.73mm in wingspan, making it a faithful miniature suitable for display cabinets and group layouts.

Yes, at 1:72 scale the model pairs well with other period jets and ground equipment to create cohesive Cold War scenes.
The decals print clearly and can accept light weathering and matt varnish treatments; apply a clear coat before and after weathering for best results.
Basic modelling tools like sprue cutters, sanding sticks, a fine file, and precision tweezers will make assembly easier. A small brush or airbrush helps with painting details.
