israeli airforce questions?

Posted by saltydog on Wednesday, January 28, 2004 6:34 PM

as far as modeling goes, ive been in it for about 6 months now. my main 2 addictions are P-51D and modern israeli airforce jet fighters with thier most excellently cool cammo pattern. i have just finished the P-51D i posted earlier, now i want to start on some israeli jets, namely the A-4, F-4, and F-16. i have about 6 reference pics for each aircraft, but i would like some more. where can i find the markings? are there any kits out there with israeli markings that are decent? if not, do aftermarket people carry them for 1/48. any links for israeli aircraft would be much appreciated. thanks. Smile [:)]

Not sure if these are what you're looking for but here's what I found --->http://www.iafe.net/decals.htm

Not sure of the quality of these decals but they seem to have what you're after. This site also has a photo gallery (just click photo gallery) of kits made with Israeli markings, and some other things worth looking into as well. I didn't check everything on this site but it has a lot of info about Israeli military stuff in general.

/edited because my spelling is off tonight. uggh...

Try this site
http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Hangar/2848/gallery.htm
The decals thenothing mentioned are supposed to be very good according to the reviews I have read. Check further on that site as there is a lot of good info.
You can see built up kits over at www.aircraftresourcecenter.com and many other sites, Just do a search at www.google.com under Israeli Air Force or IDF or even by the plane names and you will be surfing for hours.
I have always had of love of the Israeli Air Force and Army and have collected quite a few books on the subjects. Check your local library and you may be pleasantly surprised.
Good luck on your projects.

The company you want to search for is Isradecals they make the most accurate decals and print IDF-AF only references. IIRC they have specific sheets for the A-4, F-4, and F-16 that allow any squadron to be made.
