Andre Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Anyone want to take a stab at the green top color? I'd go for RAL 6013, as per Israeli S199's. Cheers, Andre Quote Link to post Share on other sites
imatt88 Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Aaron, Nope she really flew. The Czech air force had two, this one, and another one used for a jet engine testbed. They were retired in 1952.. Cool stuff.. Andre, Yeah, that sounds about right. Thats what I was thinking as well... Cheers, Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

imatt88 Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 Petr, I used to be a member of that site, but it got so hard to translate English into Czech, I stopped posting.

AlCZ Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) This Uhu isn't what if - it is first (and last) czech (czechoslovakian) AWACS in history. This particulary Uhu with "bort" white 32 may be late painted in overall silver (not NMF- only silver -or aluminium color - as our Mossie...) Painted was by khaki and light blue. Uhu's was dislocated in Žatec Airflield and carry probably weapon as He-219A-5 standard without rear "Schrage Musik". Edited November 26, 2013 by AlCZ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
imatt88 Posted November 26, 2013 Author Share Posted November 26, 2013 A, Cool! Great info. I did not know about the silver finish... Thanks, Cheers, Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
