Kinetic 48065 1/48 Chinese Navy J-15 Flying Shark

Model Aircraft Kit

Build Chinas first operational carrier-based fighter with this highly detailed 1/48 scale J-15 Flying Shark model kit from Kinetic. Developed by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation for the Peoples Liberation Army Navy, the J-15 is a carrier-capable multirole fighter derived from the Su-27 family, incorporating Chinese avionics, weapons systems, and design modifications for naval operations. Entering service in the early 2010s, the J-15 became the primary fixed-wing aircraft operating from Chinas aircraft carriers, including the Liaoning and Shandong, providing fleet air defense, maritime strike, and power projection capabilities. This kit accurately captures the aircrafts distinctive features with finely engraved surface detail, a detailed cockpit, folding wing configuration, carrier-specific landing gear, optional external fuel tanks and weapons, and high-quality decals for authentic Chinese Navy markings.
