LIGHT. INF. SCOUT:

Hobby Master's non-USA F-4 Phantoms are the Japanese, German, British and Australian models. I own their Steve Ritchie and Duke Cunninham models with a pre-order for the Vietnam F-4E "Arkansas Traveler" to be released in February.

The modelhangar.com message board has the latest on Hobby Master models---including updates from William Liu of Hobby Master, but the board has been down for about six days. If I remember correctly, there have been a lot of requests for a Hobby Master Israeli F-4 on themodelhangar.com board, and Mr. Liu is very receptive to buyer comments.

Here's a link to current Hobby Master F-4 models with photos and reviews:

Thanks - I guess no Israeli one then :cry: I swear I thought I saw one on a website the other day but can't find it now. Must have been wishful thinking. :wink:

Hey D53 - got that one. Must be losing my mind. I was hoping to get an Israeli fighter to go with my Egyptian Mig 21

I'll bet we will see a Hobbymaster Israeli F-4 before its all over with. They just released an Israeli Texan so it is almost a given. :wink:

Surely this isn't a serious question?

LT. INF. SCOUT:

Hobby Master Israeli F-4 due this spring--from the Motorpool.com:

"Hobby Master Adds the Israeli Phantom II to Its Aerial Armada
When Hobby Master announced their intent to model the McDonnell F-4 Phantom II fighter-bomber in 2008, it was perhaps just a matter of time before they would get around to offering one of the most important export versions ever to see action. The Israeli Kurnass (F-4E) played a central role in the Yom Kippur War of 1973 and has seen extensive service in air-to-air and air-to-ground actions following the war. The Hobby Master version (HA1909) is expected sometime this spring and will likely become one of the most coveted F-4 Phantom IIs amongst aviation enthusiasts....[posted 1/23/2009]"
