Academy 1/32 SUFA, 1 Squadron IAF

By Brent Simpson

This was a long build for me, I got the kit 3 years ago at a bargain basement price from Erig Galliers, who cajoled and inspired me to keep at it.

She sat on the shelf of doom for quite a while before I pulled my finger out and got her done.

I like the Academy kit, despite some shape issued (which I have no clue about as I know zero about F-16s) the kit fits well.

I used the following AM:

Wolfpack cockpit
Aires wheel bays and wheels
I mated the inside of the Aires F-15 slam engine with the Academy petals as no AM engine existed at the time
Master static wicks
Tamiya laser guided bombs

References were from the excellent Isracast SUFA book. She was painted in Gunze, free-hand camo and the decals came from the kit and Isradecal.

Again thanks to Eric for pushing me to get her done and for taking the photo's that I now present for your enjoyment!
