S'AAR build diary
The body is done. The cockpit chamber needs to be installed
before glueing the nose section. A ballast is a coin. The contour of the intake needs to be shaped after glueing is complete. Yair |

The Sa'ar is looking good Yair. Glad you're doing a more detailed build log. Looking forward to the cockpit installation, that's always a high point to me.

That's for the super mystere, not the sa'ar in particular. To quote that website, " late 1967 the A-4H Skyhawk arrived in Israel and IAF engineers recommended the implant of its Pratt & Whitney J52-P-8A engine in the Super Mystere. The Pratt & Whitney engine, although not afterburning, was lighter, more reliable and 25% more powerful than the Sambad's original Atar engine. It allowed the carriage of more ordance, a longer range and longer endurance over the battlefield, and since the type was no longer an interceptor, the afterburner was no longer a necessity. The upgrade programme was also inspired by the French embargo of weapon sales to Israel and Super Mystere no. 909 was the first aircraft to undergo the conversion, re-engined at an IAF maintenance unit at Tel-Nof. Ground trials were carried out in January 1969 and On February 13th the new aircraft, the Sa'ar (Tempest), took off on its maiden flight." This shows that he sa'ar, an entirely different version of super mystere, had the j52, unlike all other super mysteres prior Really easy stuff to get lost in
