Here is my second submission on ARC and this time it is mighty Soviet interceptor Su-15TM. This kit is well known among modellers and I will not spend your time in describing all inaccuracies in this kit. 

There is a lot of aftermarket sets on the market to improve this kit and I used some of them:

  • 1. Quickboost corrected nose

  • 2. Eduard interior set

  • 3. Eduard exterior set

  • 4. Northstar models corrected exhaust nozzles

  • 5. Quickboost air scoops set

  • 6. Begemot decals

  • 7. Equipage rubber wheels.

There is problem with the length of the fuselage but I decided not to deal with it (yes I'm lazy).

This model represents 21 yellow aircraft from the Gromovo air base in Leningradskaya oblast' Russia.

Overall I'd like to think the model seems to be similar with these improvements to the real thing.
Best regards.
