This cream coloured resin kit with photoetch will permit you to convert the 1/72 Revell or Haasegawa F-15E to the Israeli F-15I Ra'am.

You get 13 resin pieces and a small sheet of  photo etch that contains metal parts to create the bomb attachment points on the pylons.  The resin peices contain correct exhaust burner cans, conformal fuel tanks for the uinderside of the fuselage, GPS antenna, and quite a few other tiny parts to use on your F-15 to make it correct for an Israeli F-15I Ra'am. 

The resin casting is well done, the photoetch parts are finely done and the instructions are easy enough to follow.  

Isradecals also has F-15I Ra'am decals and a first class walkaround book for this jet that will help you get everything correct.

I am impressed with this set....it makes building the Israeli F-15I Ra'am very easy to do in 1/72 scale.
