Trumpeter 02811 1/48 Sukhoi Su-15TM Flagon-F Scale Release

This 1/48 scale Sukhoi Su-15TM Flagon-F from Trumpeter captures the interceptor's characteristic lines and equipment in a format aimed at careful builders. The ogive-shaped nose and radar-related exterior cues are modelled to provide an authentic visual reference for display work. The kit supports an involved build with clear focus on the aircraft's profile and systems.

Design Era and Technical Features

Produced between 1971 and 1975, the Su-15TM incorporated then-modern interception systems like the SAU-58-2, enabling low-altitude intercepts. The kit gives builders an opportunity to recreate the Su-15TM's external detail and better understand its operational use during that period.

Why Model This Kit

The 1/48 scale offers a good compromise between size and fine detail, appealing to hobbyists who enjoy painting and small-scale rigging. Trumpeter's parts layout allows for accurate surface detail and a finish that will look suitable on any model shelf or in a collection.
