The Quickboost QB48214 Su-15TM Flagon-F pitot tube enhancement set is intended for Trumpeter 1/48 scale models replicating the Soviet Su-15TM Flagon-F interceptor. This product is dedicated to modelers aiming to significantly elevate the level of detail in their models, especially in a critical area such as the pitot tube—one of the most characteristic features of the Su-15TM’s nose section.

Historical Overview

The Su-15TM Flagon-F aircraft was one of the main pillars of Soviet air defense during the Cold War. It served with the Soviet Air Force from the late 1960s until the mid-1990s. This type was involved in many aerial incidents, most notably the infamous shootdown of a South Korean Boeing 747 in 1983. The TM version was distinguished by a more advanced radar and avionics, as well as modified armament and equipment.
