FineMolds 1/48 IJA Reconnaissance aircraft Ki-15-I "Babs" (The Tiger Squadron)

This edition of FineMolds' model of the Ki-15 "Babs" family depicts the Ki-15-I version which entered service with the IJA as the Type 97 Command Reconnaissance Plane to fulfill the role of a strategic reconnaissance aircraft.

The 18th Independent Flying Squadron employed the Babs in China. Due to the length of the missions flown, the tiger was adopted as the unit emblem in April 1939.
