This project was
built for a friend of mine. This build used three different brand of
kits, F5-S is from Heller F5-E kit, F5-T is from F5-F Italeri kit and RF-5S is
from RF-5E Airfix kit and all these are OOP. There's some similarities
between the Heller and Airfix kit with the latter kit having a recon nose.
I
painted the cockpit's multi function display and dry brush other switches, I scratch
built the antennae using 0.3mm plastic sheet, located behind the
cockpit. Apart from these, not many changes were made from the original kit.
These 3 model resemble closely the current F5s in operation.
