Cool link. Some very interesting air combat stories and nice picture gallery. Now I know where to go for pictures for an Israeli Phantom, if I choose to go one for the Phantom campaign.

Thanks for sharing

With regard to Israeli aircraft - Can anyone here answer this?

Building the Saab 39 Gripen made me want to build some more of the most modern planes around. The Israeli F-16:s are among the most beautiful. I plan to build an F-16I using the Revell F-16B and the IsraCast conversion. However, I would love to alse build a vintage marked F-16C Block 40 from the 101 using the decal sheet below (1/72 version).



Unfortunalely, IsraCast has only produced a conversion set for the F-16C block 40 in 1/48. Does anybody know which kit would be suitable, and how to proceed, if I want to build it in 1/72? It seems like the F-16 scene is a complete jungle with different intakes and exhaust and spines etc etc etc etc.... A "modern aircraft newbie" could do with some guidance!!!

I'm also interested in suitible acrylic paints for the Israeli F-16. Most referenences that I've seen have only mentioned enamel paints.

Cheers!
