The newest model completed by Christoph is this fantastic F-15C from Tamiya, in 1:32 scale.
The aircraft was finished as seen during the Operation Desert Storm, in 1991. It is one of 24 ex-USAFE F-15Cs, delivered to RSAF straight from the stocks of the former 36th TFW, based at Bittburg, in Germany. These Eagles enabled the RSAF to form a completely new unit, the No.42 Squadron, based at Dhahran RSAFB.
All decals, titles and markings were made by Christoph, who also modelled many additional details - like caps for Sidewinders, earphones etc.
A special touch was addition of a mechanician. In total, a splendid-looking piece of work:

| A technician is polishing the cockpit, while the radar is in waiting of some maintenance. |

| The cockpit detailling is extensive - and includes the oxigen bottle! |
 |
| The aircraft is armed with four AIM-9Ls, four AIM-7 Sparrows and a GE M-61A-1 Vulcan cannon - the last of which can be seen in detail as well. |
