old_tonto Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I've read that Iranian F-5E & F-5F Tigers use Martin-Baker IRQ-7A ejection seats. Can any F-5 experts out there confirm this? Also does anyone know if a 1:72 resin example is available? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jure Miljevic Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 Hello old_tonto I am not an expert, but fortunately some of the other BM members are. So take a look at these models: I have no idea if AM Martin-Baker IRQ-7A seats are available in 1/72. I would speculate there are AM ejection seats on the market, that are similar enough so they can be converted to IRQ-7A without too much trouble.

Hello old_tonto The nearest MB seat that I can suggest is Aires Martin-Baker GQ-7A seat ( # 7146). with few modifications it would look like Iranian Martin-Baker IRQ-7A ejection seats.
