Just got in this Witty Wings F-15C painted in the Soviet style blue camo representing "65 AGRS" the 65th Aggressor Sqdn. based @ Nellis AFB Nevada. This is my first Witty jet, at least that I have removed from the box and examined closely, and the quality and workmanship on this model exceeded my expectations. If this is generally representative of the quality of Witty jets, then there is gonna be some more WW models in my collection soon.

Here are a couple of great pics of the actual airplane for comparison:

I really like the Witty Wings F-15 model. My favorite being the red Japanese version, it looks awesome!

Great looking scheme on that F-15, ostketten.
Witty do have some unusual schemes on some of their models. Including some pretty wild JSDF schemes.
And Witty Wings have finally offered gear up options on their latest releases.

Are landing gears optional? If so I'd like one to mimic my real bear's SU-27.
Weapons detachable?

Yes, at least the four AIM-7 Sparrows on the fuselage mounts are. I'm pretty sure the gear is fixed permanently down on this model, but from what Snake says some of the newer Witty models have gear up/down options, though I couldn't tell you which ones specifically.Weapons detachable?
