Hi
Just saw an esci 1/72 Iraqi F-1 mirage/exocet combo for sale and was wondering how this kit compares to the Airfix, Heller, Hasegawa kits.
I like the exocet version but would it be better to find a spare exocet and mount it to one of the other kits.
cheers

Hi Peter, I can't speak for any of the kits overall accuracy, but I do know the Esci kit has recessed panel lines, whereas all the other releases have raised panel lines. So, I say go for the Esci kit, it would be nice to see one built.

Hi
I may just get it and build it as iam committed to doing an Iranian tomcat in the tomcat campaign so the two would go well together.
cheers
