Does anyone know of a card model of the following.

F-86 Sabre Canadair CL-13A Mk.4
RAF 93 Squadron "Golden Arrows"

Flew out of Jever Germany, April 1954 to January 1956.

Same as Corgi diecast model

My now gone Dad was there and worked on the Sabres. I'd like to build a model.

Thank you,
Clive.

I'm not sure if that specific mark is available in those specific squadron markings, but there are some potential starting points for recolors:

Bruno offers a 1/100 CL-13 in a different Canadian livery: https://www.ecardmodels.com/index.ph...per-model.html

Roman Vasyliev (der kampfflieger) offers a 1/48 F-86F in various liveries. I do not know how visually different the F-86F is from the CL-13A, but it might be the basis for a repaint.

Nobi (Thai Paperwork) also offers an F-86F in Royal Thai Air Force markings. Another potential basis for a conversion, if the aircraft is sufficiently similar to the CL-13A.

Others may have more useful information. Good luck in your quest. Incidentally, the model shown in your post is really excellent.
