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

The Trumpeter 1/48 Sukhoi Su-15TM Flagon-F kit renders the Cold War interceptor with attention to the aircraft's external characteristics. The model highlights the pronounced ogive nose and radar-related contours, offering a build that emphasises authentic silhouette and proportion.

Production History and Equipment

The Su-15TM was produced from 1971 to 1975 and incorporated systems such as the SAU-58-2 for interception duties. This kit gives modellers a chance to reproduce features linked to the aircraft's operational role during that era.

Collector and Builder Notes

The 1/48 scale is large enough to show fine detail while remaining display-friendly. Builders who enjoy careful assembly and paintwork will find the parts lend themselves to a high-quality finish and accurate presentation.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1:48
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Required for realistic finish
A careful, detailed build can take several weekends depending on experience and the level of finishing. Time spent on preparation and paint stages greatly affects the final result.
The kit provides basic cockpit detail that looks good at 1/48 scale, though modellers seeking extra realism sometimes add aftermarket seats or photo-etch for enhancement.
Use layered painting with a primer, base colours and subtle washes to bring out panel lines. Reference photographs help match period-accurate tones and markings.
