IAI Finger (Argentine AF Falklands)

Following discussions between the FAA and Israel Aircraft Industries, a ground attack upgrade based on the Israeli Kfir but retaining the SNECMA engine was developed. These fitted new French & Israeli avionics and had the distinctive "Kfir" stye nose. The aircraft were converted in batches and renamed Finger. One airframe (C-408) was upgraded as Finger I, two as Finger II (C-405 & C-427) and remainder of the surviving Daggers as Finger III. The Finger aircraft have been continuously upgraded since completion with newer systems.\

The High Planes Models kit includes new tool injection moulded plastic parts, injection moulded canopies, photo etched brass aerials and three decal options from the FAA, all from Escuadron 1, Grupo 6 de Caza at Tandil Air Base. As a bonus, it also includes a short guide to Latin American Mirages showing which alternative parts included in the kit can be used to build:
