What's going on with these guys ? Are they finished in another thread ?

They look great - the Israeli colors suit them well, even though I do not want to imagine the consequences of all the dust these things would stir up in service - either to the engine itself, or to their base ("Shoot your grenades here!")

It's been a while but here are a few I have finished and that are still WIP..........

They're all nice, but I really like that Israeli Foxbat!

Brilliant idea!

Have you got a backstory on that one? Where did the Israelis get it? Nicked one (think Firefox)? Captured one? A defector?
I could really picture the Israelis putting one to good use, not only for developing countermeasures to Foxbats, but actually flying it for recon missions for themselves. Spare parts might be a problem, but I'm sure they could find a way.

The back story I had in mind was along the lines of.........a foreign operator sent a number to Israel for upgrading by Elbit or someone similar.....an under nose camera pack and a pod very similar to a TARPS pod

was used.....deal fell through after the upgrade so the a/c were kept and used......IFR probe added and 4 Aphid missiles more than likely from captured stock used for self defence although speed/performance was primary means of defence.......

I should mention again.....a huge thank you to KitPR19 for his time and effort in making the decals for me so I can finish the models how I want to.....without his help I dunno what I'd have done....

Captain Canada · September 11, 2014, 04:44:14 PM
