Another South African Mirage From the Duke

[Mark Deliduka]

Okay, another finished South African Mirage! This is the old Airfix model that I had built as a French bird in my youth. This one came courtesy of a sale at a garage sale. Built OOB:

There are a couple blemishes I need to fix, but I'm calling this one done.

Thanks for looking in! Comments are welcome.

Nice camo Duke! We have a South African in our club (also a 1/72 builder) who'd absolutely love this one! Congrats!

Nice job!  I am not to familiar with SA markings.   Is that a Eagle on the national markings?  Must be a squadron marking on the tail (looks like a bug)?

It's a a springbok, I think....

Yes, it is a springbok and I put that decal on sideways on that side. Man, that bites! Nothing I can do about it now. The squadron marking is a dragonfly I believe.
