Babs Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 I hope you enjoy this unconventional Mirage, the Italeri kit is not so bad finally, it was a pleasure to build it, and there are still many possibilities in different versions and colors scheme.

aircommando130 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Wow! That's cool! The Israeli AF does some awesome things with airplanes in defense of their country. Now you need to build one of the two F-4's they modified with that high altitude camera nose. Great job...great plane and IAF subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babs Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 Very impressive. Truly one of a kind. Not really unique, at first I realized the conversion for an Israeli friend, IAF man had published the Facebook page with the pictures of the finished model. And then I decided to do mine. Thank you for your compliments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started an RF-4 E, and it's already a lot of work. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
