I have finished a Cheetah E, thanks to Scaleworx that provided a resin set for the AMK Kfir.

The conversion went pretty smoothly, so here is the result :

Hi bad edd

What was your source for the ordnance?
Is that all in the AMK kit?

Thank you for your kind words.


The two Kukri missiles are from the Special HobbyMirage F1 kit, on the original AMK Kfir Pylons (don't know if 100% correct but they looked quite similar)

The drop tanks are scratchbuilt , Mk-82s are from the Hasegawa weapons set (the ones in the Kfir box are nicer actually but i had these Hasegawa already painted in a box so...)

The underbelly twin pylon and the chin pylons are from the AMK box.


The AMK provides some very nice LGBs , 6 Mk-82 and 4 Python III
