Trumpeter 02812 Sukhoi Su-15 UM Flagon-G: Collector and Kit Overview

The Trumpeter 02812 Sukhoi Su-15 UM Flagon-G is a finely detailed 1:48 scale plastic kit that appeals to aviation modelers and collectors. It reproduces the two-seat combat trainer variant of the Su-15, offering parts and features suited for accurate builds and display models.

Historical Background

The Su-15UM was developed from the late-production Su-15TM and first flew on 23 April 1976. Designed as a two-seat trainer, it retained the basic fuselage length of earlier Su-15 types and, despite lacking some advanced avionics, could carry R-98MT and R-60 IR-guided missiles. Production ran from 1976 to 1979.

Display and Modelling Appeal

This Trumpeter kit captures the Su-15UM's defining lines and provides ample opportunity for painting and weathering at 1:48 scale, making it a strong choice for Cold War era collections and showcase models.
