Major Dmitri Mitchell was chosen to pilot one of the two F-15Es at Lakenheath that were specially painted in the WW2 "Invasion Stripes" to take part in the D-Day 75th Anniversary Heritage Flight over Normandy in 2019.

Dmitri went aloft that day in the F-15E with red tail flash and when Revell released their brand new tool of the 1/72 F-15E Strike Eagle they used the plane that he flew that day for the box art.

LionHeart Hobby is honored to call Major Mitchell a friend, and he has signed the box art for our community on a limited number of kits! Grab a piece of history!
