Hi there Well this kir is just amazing but all your questions are going to be answered in this book https://www.helion.co.uk/military-history-books/iraqi-mirages-dassault-mirage-family-in-service-with-iraqi-air-force-1981-1988.php There are other books that explains the Marcel Dassault Mirage F-1 but for the Iraki AF only this one Ragarrds Armando

1000 Thanks I will proceed then (very nice kit but still lacking a bit from engines and propellers)

Hi there Well I wanted to ask if the propellers of the Tigercat are the same kind of those used on the Grumman Hellcat??? Regards Armando

Let me ask on what scale do you model in 1/72 or 1/48?

Ok Drake Let me then help a little bit, I'm going to pass the questions and post you the answers Regards Armando

Hi there All information regarding Fuerza Aerea Ecuatoriana here https://www.facebook.com/groups/403533174462717/?hoisted_section_header_type=recently_seen&multi_permalinks=926685228814173 saddly they have their anual Model Show this weekend so maybe you'll be put on hold for a while Regards Armando

Hi there Well in 1/72 there are only 2 normally available moulds the old KP or Kovosavody Prostekov and the Zvesda/Italeri (avoid old Revell thats the worst of all) Art Models are limited issues very difficult to find Regards Armand

Tha's the only Mirage III/5 that I don't have Regards Armando

Hi there Let me help a bit Let's start on the small and large underwing fuel tanks (as all aircraft came from Marcel Dassault0, in theory all can use same fuel tanks be use by Mystere, Super Mystere. Etendard and Super Etendard Mirage III/5 and Mirage F-1 Then for 1/72 for small fuel tanks the Academy Super Etendars includes a couple of small fuel tanks perfectly to use on Super Mystere also L'Arsenal do a set for the Mystere so you need different underwind pylons No Mirage III/5 kit in 1/72 includes the small fuel tanks Regards Armando

Well Martin I some way you're right each of the aircraft had a different pattern, But and a big but here is that at that time the only available comercial paint was from Sherwin Willians so if stock paint (the razonable thought but any paint mix was possible) that gaves the modeller a whole range of choosing Regards Armando

I would also appretiate the anwer I order one kit a couple of days ago Regards Armando

Hi there Well now please attach some photo of the rocket pack deployed, I had read about it but never able to locate an actual photo of it Regards Armando

Well the fuel tanks looks that coming from old Northrop F-5AB Freedom Fighters

I just got the tracking package iD from Hannants so I'm just waiting for the kit Regards

Well actually there were some improvement on the old mold the later Hasegawa A-37 issue also include a bigger instrument panel and some antennas but other than that you need to add some parts and sand a bit the headreast no weapons choice only full 7 and 19 shoot 2.75" FFAR The Academy is a better choice Regards Armando

Let me say that I have bought some from them and those models are increibles

you can look here https://www.ebay.com/str/forge?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Kg5I129aR8K&sssrc=3418065&ssuid=M7Oy-XzORzi&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

1000 Thanks for your reply Rob I'll still wondering how the fuselage height cut can affect the radome and the engine assembly. I see no real trouble cutting the 4 mm behind the cockpit or adding the 2 mm between the fuselage and the engine assembly For other part if I cut between 1 mm (the reaching the 2mm total) to each half maybe better to only cut 0.5 mm to each half if I cutt 1 mm to each half there is going to be a gap in the middle as the only need a total 1 mm in the frontal and aff ends So as I still don't feel good on this maybe my path of action can be to look for the drawings and some check ups Regards Armando PS In the past so many people only help has been you better buy that XXX new kit, well here I'm in a country without any decent hobby shop, where plastic models are luxury item, down the border in the middle of Banana Republics of Central America, and enjoy modelling so I do it with what its available not always have what I really want or need Traditional scratch building or kitbashing much appreciated by me Before I forget the skyrocketing mail fees Well something like that
