Dassault Super Mystere B2 versions
RAGATIGER replied to GiampieroSilvestri's topic in Aircraft Cold War
That was the right comentary I had the chance to talk about the Dassault Ouragans with pilots that flew the on Salvadorean Air Force and about the Dassault Super Mystere in Hondurean AF they both agree they were the last of the line almost scrap or leftovers then there was chance to sell them so they sold all including spare parts and engines in part that was the reason they still fle in the early 90s But the FAH had to wait until a solution was fix for the Super Mystere and because of that they got a Martin Baker Mk6 ejection seats because they were available as leftovers from Myrage IiCJ and Neshers The israeli upgrade to Super Mysteres include lots of things more than a J65 jet engine from the Douglas A-4 Skyhawks that is the most notticeable thing other than a thing for moving hydraulics plumbing from down to upper side of fuselage, the wings were also upgrades with extrengh load some intakes were change and in the cockpit a Radar Warming Receiver RWR (I got some scans for an old article with drawings included from Airfix magazine_ Redgards Armandp -

Hi there Well let me made outstanding service from Hannants as usual I got one actually 2 on 2 different orders Eduard 1/48 scale P-51D Mustang but intended for my modelling mentor an old 77 year retired medical doctor and then he told me that one of the windshields gone missing in action, so my sole answer was I'm going to inform that to Hannants and we going to get the piece as for be different of my scale choice so I wrote them and the wait start on October, Then he told me that he sent an email directly to Eduards and a Lady answer him that they already processed that inquiry for El Salvador (yes the one down the border right in the middle of Bananna Republics of Central America)but with another name and ask for clarification and yes it was the same kit By the way my friend is a Terrific Modeller and those Eduard kits were used to do very weird conversion Mustang Cavalier and Mustang Enforcer from Halberd Models https://www.halberdmodel.co/products/cavalier-f-51d-mustang-mustang-mk-2-conversion-1-32-set-for-tamiya-kit-p-51d https://www.halberdmodel.co/products/piper-enforcer-model-1971-conversion-set-for-eduard-kit-p-51d-1-48-scale I went to main Mail office to pick up other packages last Friday 13th of December only to receive another package from Czech Republic and notice that the package actually arrive here on November 5th so the delay was local Kudos to Hannants and Eduard Special regards Armando
