Hasegawa 02419 - 1/72 F-15J Eagle 204SQ Naha Air Base 40th Anniversary Collector Kit  [HA-02419]

Hasegawa 02419 1/72 F-15J Eagle commemorative 204SQ Naha Air Base release

This Hasegawa 1/72 F-15J Eagle kit celebrates the 40th anniversary of the 204th Squadron at Naha Air Base. The model reflects the F-15J variant used by the JASDF and captures the aircraft's characteristic lines and twin-engine profile for an authentic scale representation.

Assembly Appeal and display potential

The kit provides a satisfying build for hobbyists at intermediate skill levels, with finely molded components that reproduce the jet's fuselage, intakes, and control surfaces. Cockpit and undercarriage parts offer realistic detail, and a completed build makes for an attractive shelf or diorama subject.

Service background and unit tribute

The F-15J, a Japan-specific version of the F-15 Eagle introduced in the 1980s, has been central to Japan's air defence. This 204SQ edition pays tribute to the squadron's operational role from Naha Air Base and is a tasteful nod to the type's role in modern defence history.
