This an AFV kit with Hasegawa weapon set and Carapena decals. Most of it is build out of box, with many self-made corrections like extending the tail fin, adding antennas and RWR units.
Tunisians received Tigers in three batches. Four F version tandems and six single seat E versions were delivered in '84, followed by another four Es in '85 and finally in '89 the last, third batch of Es arrived. Unlike the original fleet the last four arrived without those big UHF antennas and tail fin fillets.
Mostly not known outside of Tunisia, that they have flown many CAP missions and ground strikes against extremists active along the Libyan border.
Most of them received some upgrades during their lifetime, like RWRs on the tail and the nose.
