Glad you like it @Dan. Your Sufa still in box or in WIP stage?

My Sufra is somewhere else. Want that kit but cannot find for love nor money. Like Unicorn poo.

Hope one day the mailman will come by and bring you the Sufa to you, @Dan.

Much thanks, @Alistair and @Christian! It was a quick build with a special focus on paintwork and weathering

Awesome and beautiful build! Any idea of this particular bird's combat history? Just curious. This particular model is 50% too large to "fit in" with the kits in my collection. 😄

Hi @Edward. The history was an afterthought. But I managed to dig out something from Wing Palette and F-16.net. F-16D Block 52; Unit: 119 tajeset, IDF/AF; Serial: 497 (s/n 00-1049, c/n YD-49); Ramon AFB, April 2007. F-16 aircraft from Fiscal Year 2000, Peace Marble V. photo f-16.net/aircraft-da..rframe-profile/4731/

@Danumurthi Mahendra Interesting data! Given how closely Israel guards its combat mission records I presume we wouldn't find anything out as to whether this 119th Tayaset "Bat" squadron bird has seen action or not.

You are right @Edward. Been looking everywhere. This seem to be a good record of 119 Bat Squadrob, but sadly minus the F-16I. aeroflight.co.uk/waf../af/units/119sqn.htm

Oh that is just fantastic Dan! This is inspiring, the Sufa is high on my list of "must builds".
Well done!
