Product Description
- At the time, Israel was under arms embargo from various countries, but negotiated with the Czechoslovakian government about purchasing Avia S-199s.
- Israel purchased 25 aircraft, of which all but two have been delivered.
- In combat, the S-199 proved to be unreliable and performed poorly.
- Despite numerous problems and poor reviews from pilots, the S-199 achieved the honor of being the Israeli Air Force's frontline fighter during the First Arab-Israeli War.
- Decals are available in three Czech and three Israeli varieties.
