Just a few thoughts for modelling the F-15EX in 1/48. Use the lower port wing from a Mongram F-15A or F-15C kit as a drill guide for locating the outboard pylons since that kit has one on the port side carrying an ECM pod. For F110 exhaust nozzles, usa a F-15K (Block 1) conversion set.
In 1/72, hasegawa prodcued an early Strike Eagle kit that included the outbaord wing pylons and 1/72 F110 exhaust nozzles are readily available.

If I remember correctly, the chin pod disturbed the airflow enough that McDD did not pursue the concept further. It is attractive, though.

IIRC, this was for part of of Wild Wesel F-15 porposal. Since the chin pod didn't work, how about mounting an HTP (HARM Targeting Pod) from a wil Weasel F-16 under the TFR pod on an F-15E?
