A recently completed 1/100 scale model of the IAI KFir C2 aircraft built from the Revell/Takara kit. The model was assembled very nicely, but it turned out to be a bit problematic to fit the cabin cover to the hull and the decals, yellowed with age (the model had been in the box for over 30 years), which fitted perfectly. If it weren't for the fact that there are no decals for 1/100 models on sale, I had to use the ones I had in the set. Please visit the gallery of the finished model.

They have a common theme in belonging to South American air forces, and being delta winged aircraft. The first one is a Modelsvit 1/72 Mirage III EBR, built in the "azure grey" scheme. Aftermarket used is Master pitot tube and Reskit Mirage IIIE resin engine nozzle. Also replaced gun barrels with hypodermic needles, and added some brake lines to gear legs from copper and lead wires. Very nice kit, had fun building it, just required some patience, as fit is rather tight in

Hi all! Here is my 1/48 AMK Kfir C7, from the Arava Guardians Squadron, circa 1990. I used Master Metal Pitot and Aires seat, and the decals were OOB.

It is not in the same league as the Tamiya Tomcat as far as fitment is concerned, but everything fit great except the nose assembly to the forward fuselage. There was a step on both sides that I had to deal with. I am very happy with h
