Am I right if I think that all parts for a French version is included in this release?
Seems like it, right side, second sprue from the top.

I suspect it was an error? The kit is not even available yet on Special Hobby's own website and their latest newsletter says it won't be released until next month.
Yeah, the FB link mentions the release being Moson only.

Not really impressed, seems like a rehash of the BoB scheme to me.

Are the Snecma Atar 101 G3 engine exhaust pipe parts for the French ''Armée de l'Air'' version of the SMB-2, also available on the sprues of this kit ?

Middle sprue on the right in the picture.

Released - ref. SH48238 - Dassault SMB-2 Super Mystère - Sa'ar - Israeli Storm in the Sky - Hi-Tech kit
Sources:

V.P.
The Mn-modelar link goes nowhere....

The radio panel seems closest to the Magnavox C-9533 control panel, but the upper half is different.
The hole above it was filled with the weapons panel.
The small square panel next to the radio is an ATC transponder.
the next panel seems to have stuff like 'anti ice' and some fuel switches on it.
the last panel seems fuel related as well.

Does the yellow handle denote an ejection seat? Didn't know they had those.

apparently the 1981 version was fitted with a 'Stanley-Yankee' system.

Thank you these help. I tried every combination I could think of C-130 Propeller 1/72 on scalemates and google. All I got were hand car ed wood display stuff. How did you find all of these links ??
Sometimes simple is better..
C-130
checked 1/72, and detail and conversion sets.
Then I looked at everything with more than 4 blades....

@Bozothenutter included several links for the NP2000 prop. It's an 8 bladed prop used on E-2, C-2 and a few C-130Hs not the 6 bladed prop like on the C-130J.
Oops....I didn't count....🫣

As with any kit of that era, check all shapes etc, looks like the design brief was " a Mirage with a pointy nose, and a different exhaust "
-
Have a pic:
But I'm wondering what the lower row of switchplates is.
lower left seems to be a radio, then a transponder, then a ???? a fuel panel?
The lower panel, another radio? then a bunch of switches?
are these standard panels?
Any idea where the throttle and stick came from?
I'm winging an IP for the Cavalier Turbo Mustang III in CAD, so any sizing info would help.

Oh, good golly, Miss Molly! Let's see what we have here:
speed brakes the correct shape- check!
correct narrow chord slatted wings- check!
gun blast panels with both styles of gun ports- check!
positionable control surfaces- check!
accurate V-shaped windscreen - check! (Hard to tell in the photo, but what I can see looks pretty good!)
correct stabilizers and stabilizer root fairings- check!
...and they will be doing one in God;s Own Scale as well? Put me down for at lest one of each, please! Looks like the way they have engineered the A kit, they would need to do completely new fuselage halves for an E or F-10.
That being said, we all owe you, big-time, Duncan!

From that pic, it looks like the 'V' is hollow, probably to prevent sink marks.

I've heard the Mirage V referred to as essentially a "Mirage III without a radar". Accurate or oversimplification?
That's what the Israelis wanted, they didn't need radar.

The Israelis 'built' their own Neshers, which later turned up in South America with Dassault type plates and serials.....🤫

I think that "The new 1:48 scale kit from Great Wall Hobby has just arrived" in the description suggests fresh delivery.
A month later, and no shipping notice from MBK....must have been an advance copy then.
Anyone received theirs yet from any source?

There was a thread on here with a link to official Armée de l'air documentation.
I believe the thread was related to the 2000, but my Google-fu has left the building.....

Seems to have full interior

Yeah fair play but Ive built their Sea Flanker...
Ooohh! Cool!
Loved the look of the kit, but not that bothered about Flankers.
Minibase really seem to be pushing the limits on injected styrene.
What was it like to build?

I knocked some Tamiya thin over a little while ago. Onto a brand new A5 mat🤬 Cleaned it up but I’m beginning to think I haven’t dispelled it sufficiently and will have to get a new mat. I’ve defo been getting an allergic reaction ever since if I spend more than a couple of hours in there now! Itchy and irritated nostrils so I get cold like symptoms after 24hrs. Really p*****g me off😖
Careful with that, some allergens are cumulative, and once triggered are permanent.

Being aviation, there no doubt is such a thing.
I'm looking for dimensions basically, like for cars, there is DIN, 2DIN etc.
Is there such a thing for aviation, and what is it called?

Yeah sure, but how do you know they used those, or weren't used anyway?
