Fouga Magister, Israeli Air Force Paper Model, 1:33 Scale.

The French-designed Fouga Magister was license-built in Israel as a basic jet trainer for the Israeli Air Force (IAF). "Tzukit" is a small songbird. During the 1967 Six-Day War, the trainer was fitted and used for close air support. The model is designed by Yoav Hozmi and is a free download from Papermoders.com. I reduced it from 1:30 scale to 1:33 but made no other changes. The model's wingspan is about 14 inches, length 12 inches. The stand is from Murph's Models. I repainted it in PhotoShop® for the Magister. Yoav's models are superb and include several planes in IAF markings and camouflage.
