GiampieroSilvestri Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) Here are some pictures of the just finished Mirage IIIEA.It is the Eduard 1/48 scale Mirage IIIC converted into a IIIEA using the front of the fuselage,exhaust and the landing gear legs of a Esci kit.The wheels are the Eduard kit parts.The two horizontal antennas on the fin are scratch built using the stabilizers from a sidewinder.The ejection seat was replaced with a resin part from quickboost and the engine from reskit.It represents Mirage IIIEA I-003 which was the second aircraft delivered to the Fuerza aerea Argentina from Dassault and the first single seater.The allover blue paint scheme was only used for a short time in the mid 80s and only on this aircraft.

exdraken Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Congrats on this difficult conversion! The Matra Magic missiles look very good, which kit are they from? ( Magic launch rails should be canted outwards a bit, but that is a minor issue ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiampieroSilvestri Posted October 6, 2021 Author Share Posted October 6, 2021 Thank you very much! The missiles are from a Revell of Germany Rafale. Saluti Giampiero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
