Kampartiger Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 An excellent build,the Mitsubishi F-1 definitely looked fast even when it's sitting on the ground. Too bad it wasn't able to be exported due to arms sale restriction by Japan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad it wasn't able to be exported due to arms sale restriction by Japan. thanks! yes looks fast and pointy! but not so sure about its actual characteristics as a hot-rod though. very similar to the Jaguar, (same engines, same general shape, but a bit longer) I assume a practical loadout / range is not so great... I assume again, no figures checked and certainly no hands on experience of course, the Mirage F1 (also similar in external characteristics and relatively close to the Jaguar ) would come out on top.... at least on top speed please let me know if you know better BM! would definitely be interested in a comparison! (nearly all Mirage F1s retired (but Iran and some private aggressor companys in the US (DRAKEN, ATAC)), all F1s retired, most Jags (but the finally not reengined Indian ones)retired....so come forward with what you know! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markmcguire25 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Really nice job! Until This post peaked my interest, I thought this kit was a Fujimi re-issue. I may have to purchase one (several). Thanks for the inspiration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
