finally i got the 32sc  kit of hunter mk58/FGA.9 !(at very decent price in my local hobby shop in northern  italy, ebay prrrrr :D )

 

revell kit ,2nd half of 90s era as mould i suppose (or some thing after?)

 

b tw,i need soem suggestion:

 

with wich camo i'd go? for a strange mistery of my mind,i try to make of default some -light-modify to the mould i gonna build, seems to me too banal let the kit as in  the box exixts

 

so, moroccan  air force?indian air force? rare royal navy 2 colors  grey/white   ?i'd avoid the nato camo ones,too much seen around?

 

others one?

any help appreciated

The Royal Navy ones are all based on the small Avon engined Hunters, that would require a bit of work to reprofile the rear fuselage and jet pipe.

 

For colourful schemes I would go with your ideas or Middle/Far East and South America schemes.

There is a lot to choose from.

I don't know what's out there decal wise though.

Abu Dhabi had some. Desert camouflage with a red stripe along the side separating the upper and lower colours. What’s not to like?

And to be even more exotic, some of these ended up in Somalia wearing the same camouflage scheme

By the way Morocco didn’t use the Hunter. I think they were Mirage users.

 

Good luck with your final choice!

MiG-17s first, then F-5s and later Mirage F-1s. Now they are receiving F-16s
