Thanks Marek - I purchased some beautiful resin aftermarket seats to use with this model, but they were too wide for the Hasegawa cockpit. I had to dress up the kit seats as best as I could. Unfortunately, they don't look that good. What I should have done was get the complete resin cockpit for this kit. Next time!

Album info
With Eduard photoetch cockpit and exterior details, including the smallest static dischargers I've ever seen! Paint is Gunze Aqueous H310 Brown, H312 Green, H313 Yellow, and H308 Light Ghost Grey. Although this is the traditional Israeli desert camoflage, I think it's not right for the Sufa which seems to have a faded, "low viz" version of this scheme in photos. I've also added the SkunkModels Israeli weapons set (Python-4 missiles, Rafael Spice guided bombs, AN/AXQ-14 communications pod), and the LITENING targeting and navigation pods from the Hasegawa weapons set. The model won first place at Rocon 32, Sept. 2011 (Rochester, NY) in 1:72 jet category.
