Md-450 ouragan - finished model

[YOAVHOZMI]

so the moment has arrived and i finished building the OURAGAN.

but before pictures, a little bit introduction about the model and what it represents.

the OURAGAN tail no' 08 that i built, not represents an active plane, it represents a display plane that stand in one of the IAF bases.


and why i decided to build this specific bird???......
only the OURAGAN planes that served at the 60' in the IAF and where with silver schema or the blue/brown schema had the famous shark mouth.
when the OURAGAN planes painted to sand/brown/green schema they didn't get the shark mouth.

and from my point of view, OURAGAN in a sand/brown/green schema without shark mouth looks anemic and not noticeable.

fortunately, i found a picture of OURAGAN that stand in IAF base and painted with a sand/brown/green schema and with a shark mouth....this is not historically true, but at least there is such a real plane, display plane or not, but it is a real one.

this the picture of the real display bird.





but before pictures, links for my OURAGAN albums.

the scale is 1:30 like all my big models since 2013.

and yes, it represents a IAF plane.

Beautiful!

I build in a competitive atmosphere. Having won some awards, I would not want to, or dare to, compete against your skills!
