  The kit is a Heller, and have very good details of the pilot seat but few detail on the cockpit, its necesary to put a lot of  putty especially on the nose parts. The front part of the tail it was made with plastic and merged with putty. This aircraft have the shark antenna just back to the cockpit, and 2 small down to the nose part.

  The model is painted en humbrol 127 and 128 with 2 grey tones, and red is humbrol 174. The  decals are standard used on this aircraft at finally of 80's, produced in Chile. The pilots are ESCI and the GPU its scratch made with wood and aircraft wells. 

  The model is using just one AIM-9 Sidewinder inert (blue) on the left wing, like the real, and normally flying with a fuel tank on the centerline. The runway is similar at used on his home base in Chile.
