Couple questions on IDF Defenders. #1- Rotor blades. What color and markings? Photos I've found are either in flight (and at a distance) or carcasses at the bone yard with no blades. Restored, models and color plates (which I try not to use for reference) seem to show same color as the airframe with red tips or yellow bands about 1/3 of the way out from the hub. Tail rotor the same. #2- TOW missile pods. Again, all close up photos are in the bone yard. What did the front end look like with rounds in the tubes? I'd think some sort of frangible cover. What color? Any thoughts?

Columbo Time ..... "Aaaah .... One more question..." The V shaped antennae on the bottom of the tail boom. How long are they?
