Esci 1/48 A-4N Ahit - Israeli Air Force


Recommended Posts

Hi all! Another Israeli build complete as part of my little project (Next up is an F-4E). WIP below:

 

 

This is Esci's A-4M/N kit from 1979, its not very accurate to the A-4N at all (wrong canopy shape, wrong exhaust- the list goes on) but it looks like a Skyhawk so it does the job. Apart from some minor warping to the avionics hump and wing slats the fit was pretty good considering the kits age. All OOB, though I painted the canopy frame to resemble the A-4N's more closely. The kit even comes with a fictional IAF squadron.

 

Painted with AK's 3rd Gen IAF paint set and they were superb to brush paint with and the colours look pretty spot on.
