Post Gaddafi Libyan Markings


Recommended Posts

Hi Ryan,

Sorry, no answer to your question.... Is there even an internationally recognized government in Libya? From the tidbits I read in the media there seem to be only warring factions / tribes, some with aircraft or armor, some not...?

There is an entity called the "Free Libyan Air Force" which now uses the marking shown on the MiG-21 below.

and MiG-23s

and Mirage F1s

I haven't seen any decal sheets so far, but some decal designers do cover the smaller air forces so I'd bet they will appear in the future.

Just been the Match 2016 edition of Air Forces Monthly, which had an article on Libyan MiG-21s flying in Libya today, and made me wonder are there decals in 1:72 scale out there?.

RV Model's MiG-21SM kit has Libyan Revolutionary Forces markings in the kit....

There's also a MiG-25 in similar markings, but I'm not sure which faction it belongs to. No crescent, though.

That Foxbat was operated by Libya Dawn. It looks like this now.
