Shalom and greetings all my pals,
Presenting Israeli air force Mirage IIIBJ!!
I do not know how to fly it as EVERYTHING is in FRENCH. The panel, gauges, buttons, and all works are in French. Cannot fly it. Oh well

Nice bird! Is the second shot edited? Looks beautiful.
It doesn't matter if you can fly it, Aharon, it's pretty just sitting there. Of course, you could always take the bull by the horns, shove the throttle forward and just enjoy the ride!
Nice shots Aharon! I'm like you I can't read French. Where did you find an English manual?
Nice looking bird, Aharon! Add in a set of fixed canards just aft of the cockpit and on the top of the intake (roughly), and it'd look just like the Kfirs I worked on for a while. Love the reflections, too, look great
Shalom!

Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again!

Yes, I worked on Kfirs for 2+ years, back in 87-88. In Yuma, Az. of all places. Had 15 of them there for an "agressor" squadron, American pilots, Active duty USMC, and a mixed Israeli/American (civilians) maintennance force. I got the job actually 2 months before I got out of the Marines after 10 years, by taking terminal leave and going to work for them during that time. I picked up a little Hebrew while I was there, and wound up fairly fluent, in a very limited fashion! What little I did speak, I did with "no accent" according to the ones that I talked to on the phone. I confused a lot of the Israeli wives who called looking for their husbandsThey would think I was an Isaeli and start going a mile a minute. Confused the hell out of me at first!
Any way, short answer, Yeah, I worked on Kfirs
