Saw this in 1993 movie Iron Eagle 3.
Nice kit jet.
Very viable for Tac Ops & ideal Trainer model.
Add mini F22 style egnines, Id be a real Hot jet.
Great for Spec Ops & Air Combat for 3rd world nations.
Add rockets, guns, missiles & EW.
Longer nose fwd.
Extend fuel tanks, add drop tanks & mid air refuelling.
Very stable airframe, very viable.
