I found 3 at a local hobby shop a few years back, I almost flipped!
Needless to say they are safely stored in my closet.
Very nice model, I plan to build a few of them in Colombian markings.
I have a Mirage III C/B two seater that I will use for the 2 seatr Kfir type.

ça-va Tomcat16??
nice to see your beautiful equadorian K-fir...
your welcome every time..
BTW, the FAE 905 was upgraded recently to Kfir CE (C.10 standard)... and in the present it wears a low viz grey finish.. maintaining its kill mark..
see this...

Hello,
Fabolous Kfir. In your build topic on French forum there is lot of things to learn.
I'm planning to build F-21 Lion, someone knows which kit is the best? What do you think about ESCI Kfir/F-21 in 1/48?
Kind Regards
