The McDonnell Douglas F-15 Eagle, a remarkable American twin-engine, all-weather tactical fighter aircraft originally designed by McDonnell Douglas, has a rich history. The first flight of the Eagle took place in July 1972, and it entered service in 1976. Renowned for its exceptional performance, the F-15 stands out as one of the most successful modern fighters, boasting an impressive record of over 100 victories in aerial combat without any losses.
Now, after 14 months of dedicated work, the Arrows F-15 emerges as a faithful and thrilling recreation of this iconic aircraft. From meticulously replicated panel lines to the adrenaline-pumping performance, this model captures the essence of the real deal. With its twin 64mm EDF power system, expansive wing area, and robust wing structure, the Arrows F-15 enables advanced aerobatic maneuvers and high alpha capabilities while maintaining control surface authority.
The 900mm wingspan Arrows F-15 meticulously incorporates hundreds of photos and aircraft design files, resulting in a highly detailed replica. Crafted from high-strength EPO material, no aspect has been overlooked in the design process. Scale enthusiasts will appreciate the electric CNC retracts, functional flaps, LED navigation lights, pilot figure, antennae, machine guns, auxiliary fuel tanks, and missiles that adorn the aircraft. Even during high-G maneuvers, the magnetic nose cone and latch-type canopy ensure these components remain securely in place.
Powering the Arrows F-15 are two 12-bladed 64mm EDFs, each equipped with a 2840-2280KV motor. Dual 40A ESCs and a 22.2V 3300mAh 35C battery pack provide the necessary thrust and power-to-weight ratio, delivering a turbine-like sound and exhilarating performance. Painted in the captivating Oregon Air National Guard F-15C trim scheme, this aircraft stands as one of the most visually appealing F-15 Eagles available today.
