Hello. My name is Robert Jan, as can be seen from the avatar I'm a Dutch Man. Living in Thailand for almost 6 years now, have my work (maintain our ISO standards for the recycling company TES) and I have also family overhere, nothing special really. From the tittle it is not clear that the AC was delivered 1968. Well that is my year of birth. Everything from that year has my special attention. Why choose an Iranian AC? I simply love the color scheme and it is a wonder some of these birds were seen in action late 2013!!! The kit started as, guess what... I ordered the Robin Olds package with all kinds of goodies to do a Vietnam bird. But lost interest.. 3 years later... Today I made a jump start in to the new destination for the kit. Techmod Decals gives 2 options, I choose the F-4D 67-14884 / 3-616. 308th TFS, 32nd TFW, Imperial Iranian Air Force (IIAF) TFB.3 Nojeh1973. There is a lot to talk about, building such a jet. More details will follow later. I don't read, speak & understand Farsi. Sites I came across about the, nowadays IRIAF, show a lot of bright pictures of their Air Force. Pictures I made today.. I will show some more material next week. What I did today was giving it some color, checked the load out I was planning, (Sidewinders are still WIP). Have to figure out which type they got in 1973. Had a lot of fun. Hope you all like it. Please feel free to comment and good advice is always more than welcome. Kind regards, Robert Jan
