The shots I did get you could barely make out the livery...all around gray with a yellow stripe on the vertical tail and two large drop tanks each. I think Columbian AF Kfir's. Who knows why they are flying around San Antonio....maybe going to the training air force base here or stopping in at the airport to refuel.
Yes Robert. Probably Colombian K-Firs. Some of them were in the U.S. participating in Red Flag recently. Probably some still are flying over there. I found some photos here: Colombian Armed Forces pics, videos and more - Page 196

That's them that I saw. Make's sense if they are flying from Red Flag and passing through here...Nellis is West from here and they came in from the West. Bet they are re-fueling and heading South from here. Thanks for the info Ruben!

Greetings.

After a long time of not being able to post virtually anything, finally connect to conclude what had been doing ... Then I upload some images related to improvements I decided to give this model that presents some aspects that do not match the real aircraft,

1. - The missiles and their respective stations that brings the model do not match those used by the Kfir CE and are also out of scale, so I designed some new parts that match the real model this is with Phyton IV.

new pices designed: radome, ventral tank, missile launchers and stations, and Phyton 4 missile





wrong parts of the model: missiles and ventral tank:





new Phyton 4 designed:







to compare:

Ventral thank.

The curved shape of the ends of the fuel tank is much better to be done with three segments and also has smaller diameter.
