JASDF F-15J Kai

[Firefox]

This one is inspired by another Japanese anime: Patlabor. The modified F-15 looks really cool (https://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/topic/14536-shoji-kawamori-patlabor-aircraft-designs/page/2/) and there is actually a model in 1/144 scale. I've decided to modified a 1/72 F-15J to look similar to the anime with the exception of the nozzle. The anime uses 2D thrust vector stealth nozzle and I made a 3D nozzle.

Nicely done. 

BTW, the movie "Patlabor 2" is highly recommended. Yes, it's anime and you get giant robots, but it is rather a (surprisingly) slow-paced political thriller (it has been described as "... with the plot similar to a Tom Clancy novel.") than a flashy mecha-bashing movie. And even though it was published long ago in 1993, the film and its topics are still very "fresh" and relevant. The soundttrack is also (literally) cool.

Just thinking that if you did a twin seat version of that in USAF colours it would be the 'XF-15F Cheetah' from Dale Browns book Day of the Cheetah.

That's a good idea!

Twin internally nose mounted 30mm cannons would be a nice pair of effective  close quarters armament systems.
