as far as modeling goes, ive been in it for about 6 months now. my main 2 addictions are P-51D and modern israeli airforce jet fighters with thier most excellently cool cammo pattern. i have just finished the P-51D i posted earlier, now i want to start on some israeli jets, namely the A-4, F-4, and F-16. i have about 6 reference pics for each aircraft, but i would like some more. where can i find the markings? are there any kits out there with israeli markings that are decent? if not, do aftermarket people carry them for 1/48. any links for israeli aircraft would be much appreciated. thanks.[:)]
Not sure if these are what you’re looking for but here’s what I found —>http://www.iafe.net/decals.htm
Not sure of the quality of these decals but they seem to have what you’re after. This site also has a photo gallery (just click photo gallery) of kits made with Israeli markings, and some other things worth looking into as well. I didn’t check everything on this site but it has a lot of info about Israeli military stuff in general.
/edited because my spelling is off tonight. uggh…
Try this site

The decals thenothing mentioned are supposed to be very good according to the reviews I have read. Check further on that site as there is a lot of good info.
You can see built up kits over at www.aircraftresourcecenter.com and many other sites, Just do a search at www.google.com under Israeli Air Force or IDF or even by the plane names and you will be surfing for hours.
I have always had of love of the Israeli Air Force and Army and have collected quite a few books on the subjects. Check your local library and you may be pleasantly surprised.
Good luck on your projects.
I have a pic of an Isreali F-15, but i dont know how to post pics on the forum. If you email me i will gladly send you the pic. I would have to find the website I got if from since I didnt put it in my favorites.[D)][D)]
Ok i finally found the website where i got the F-15 pic from and it has some really good pics of Isreali F-16’s on it, one of the pics has a bunch of F-16’s, F-4’s and some other Isreali aircrafts in the background. I hope this helps the website is www.studenten.net/customasp/axl/index.asp. Plus now i have it my favorites lol.
The company you want to search for is Isradecals they make the most accurate decals and print IDF-AF only references. IIRC they have specific sheets for the A-4, F-4, and F-16 that allow any squadron to be made.
thanks guys, ive extracted some really cool images and info from the links and search criteria provided. again, thanks. later
