Northrop F-5E Tiger II in Imperial Iranian Air Force color scheme


Recommended Posts

I like that a lot.

I would say it is about spot on having seen quite a few of these, they were worked pretty hard.

I worked in Iran for two years, at the main airport in Tehran in those days I spotted 37 Phantoms all The Boeing 747 and Boeing 707 tankers.

As you exited the airport road one side of the road contained twenty four Chinooks,the other Side of the road had thirty eight UH1s.

Highlight of my spotting there was four Tomcats at Abadan airport plus two Orions on one of my leave trips.

Absolutely excellent Tiger. Love the execution of the paintwork and the build in generall.

Congratulations to an outstanding modelling achievement!

 

Now you go and do a fitting Phantom and Tomcat to that!

 

I was lucky enough to visit Iran last year and it was the first time I saw the Persian Tomcat and Tigers along with the Phantoms there live. What an eyewatering sight. I cannot wait to start my Persian Cat either.

The visit to your country has been really great.

 

Greets from Germany and keep up your awesome modelling work!

Hi Barzin,

 

This is a fantastic build mate. It got me interested to make one in Iran Imperial schema too.

Hi dear folks 

This is my very first effort of bulding a model of F-5 from AFV CLUB.As many of you know the kit is superb and detail is brilliant.

I used Martin-Baker IRQ-7A ejection seat that comes with AFV CLUB Saeqeh kit.(Iranian version of F-5E)

Colors are mixture of CSI Creos Mr. HOBBY , Mr. COLOR and AKAN paints. 

Sorry for bad quality photos, I haven’t provided myself aD
