This model was essentially build OOB from the Eduard Models Profipack, using the decals from the Matterhorn Circle at
www.mc-one.ch and adding the AIM-26B Falcon from True Details USA.
When Switzerland decided to acquire Mirage III S/RS/BS in the early 1960’s which would be license built, it also purchased a single Mirage III C directly from Dassault Manufacturer to accelerate system integration testing.

One of the weapon system
was the carrying of a pair of U.S. manufactured AIM-26B Falcon missiles. While the Mirage III C was never to actually fire a live round it performed a number of separation tests (thus the silhouette markings) to qualify the launch rail.
I hope you like my rendition of this classic delta plane from the Cold War era and beyond.
