IAI Lavi
-
@Radium cheers ! Thanks for sharing. Amazing to see actual pilots around
-
John Golan estimates for the Lavi, comparable to figures I’ve seen for the Gripen and mirage
-
Just gonna drop this here, its from the 30 year cancellation event of the lavi. Had some scale mockups
Could be interesting to think of india partnering up with israel to build the lavi instead of the tejas, since both are small and carry the same missions almost -
Hello,
very interesting !!!
Yeah, I could have done an indian livery !

Hi,
My name is Adam, and I am new to this Forum.

@Adami Hello ! You can use OGLLOD. But I will not share source files !

Hi, amazing work on your Lavi. I was wondering what type of blueprints did you use during the preparation of the 3D model, as for years I have been looking for accurate Lavi drawings without much success. A few years ago a guy called Bekim was working on the 1/32 Lavi, and he was able to get some assistance from the IAI (see: here), but he was not able to disclose the whole 3-view plan. Would it be possible for you to share such drawings, or even generate them based on your 3D model?

@Lolek Hello,
Believe me or not : I never used any kind of blueprint.
As I said numerous times before, I never work with blueprints, because they are always wrong.
I only work with photos, which more relevant.
I just rebuilt everything, from pictures.
I am not sure that I can do blueprints with my model. What would be the final use ?
Best regards,
Radium

@Radium Then it is even more impressive that you were able to get such results purely from photos. My main interest is for modeling purposes - making an accurate Lavi is highly problematic due to the rather scarce availability of plans/photos, even a simple 3-view of the 3D model would be a great help.
