1/72 Kfir C2 enters the fray...

[Hippy Ed]

I have the old Hasegawa Kfir C2 kit B7 I'll try to get it done in time... Pics will be posted tomorrow.... :drinks
Well, I took a few pics just now & these should do the trick...

This last pic is the paint guide. Not sure which scheme I'll do. Don't know which units they are either Think top one is a grey scheme? & the lower is tans?

Thanks for looking in. Comments, advice welcome.

Cool bird we had our own version of this bird in SA US also borowed a few to be used as agressors (F-21)
The top is a grey on grey low viz cammo and the bottom is a standard 3 color IDF cammo

Nice choice! I would certainly go with the traditional IDF scheme.

I was able to see one upclose at Hatzerim AFB during the open-doors day (Israeli independence day). Unfortunately cameras were not allowed... :angry:

Looking forward to your build!

really neat! I had started a KFIR, A tmaiya kit (which I really thinks is acutally and old Hasegawa) with the intent of not just doing that camo, and lost some of the parts!!! I have been 'jonesing' ebay for one I can get on the cheap to cannibalize and use to complete - will watch this with intrest!

Hey Eddie if you look on the paint guide there should be a colored square by your paint names so this is a paint by color not paint by numbers ...

Ignore. Derp moment. For whatever reason I decided to confuse the IAF campaign w/ the Aussie/Kiwi campaign.
