Academy 1/48 RAAF Mirage III-C Fighter Scaled Plastic Model Kit

The famous French fighter was first flown in 1956 and became operational with the French Armee de l'Air in the early '60s. The Mirage's first combat experience came during the Middle East war of 1967, where Israeli pilots demonstrated their superb flying skill in maneuvering the Mirages to a high-scoring victory.

The proven combat ability of the Mirage quickly led to foreign sales, and the French fighter soon found itself in the markings of 10 countries.
