"Great model of an iconic aircraft"
Tarasdad (Lancaster)
Revell has really done an excellent job with this kit. The level of detail is excellent, especially for the price you pay. Cockpit details are well rendered as are surface details. The afterburner cans are simply superb. There are only a few things that keep me from giving this kit five stars. There is more flash on the parts than there should be. It is especially prevalent on some of the more delicate parts, such as the afterburner can actuators. Some of the sprue attachment points ate very heavy and make it difficult to detach the parts without damaging them. Painting instructions are a bit vague and generalized for some areas but are otherwise sufficient. Overall this is an excellent kit that turns out a great representation of the Strike Eagle.

"Slightly disappointing, but still nice"
ahsing (SF Bay Area, CA)
The entire plane is meant to be a darker grey than the molded plastic grey. In fact the listed paint is Gunship Gray FS 36118 (= Model Master 1723 Gunship Gray). Very hard to paint the entire plane, if only Revell molded this kit in the proper gunship gray ......... The main joint between fuselage front and the fuselage top/bottom is well hidden between the intakes, a nice touch, you can get by without sanding the joint (this is a common problem with many kits). The fit of parts is about average for Revell. Had to dig up bombs from spare parts to fill up the empty bomb pylons, why Revell?

 
"Great 1/48 F-15E!"
Ace Cobra
Not only is this one of the best 1/48 F-15E kits, it is one of the best Revell kits! Finally they have created a model aircraft with lowered panel lines which include screw dots! The surface, cockpit, and wheels have masterful detail and the decal sheet comes with a mass array of markings! There are not that many weapons however, just 4 sidewinders and a couple fuel tanks. But it is an excellent kit for those who are ready to take a step forward into building model aircraft!

 
"F15E"
Dodgemanjacques
i love the f15e and i have been looking for one for a little while but when i started building it it the bottom half and the top half didnt go together so i used a clamp to hold them together for a day to let the glue dry but 2 months later and the wheels snapped off the landing gear and the two half split apart once i build a model kit they stay on my shelf and nothing can get to them and they are not touched so i don't know why it would do that but i was sad about that but no one else has really had that problem as i see so i don't know but over all its really realistic and detailed
