I finally made it! I have been working on this plane for the entire week! This is the IAI Kfir C-10, but for the Colombian Air Force or, as they call it in Colombia, Fuerza Aérea Colombiana. The Israel Aircraft Industries Kfir is an Israeli-built all-weather multirole combat aircraft based on the French Dassault Mirage 5, with Israeli avionics and an Israeli-built version of the General Electric J79 turbojet engine. These Colombian IAI Kfirs became Colombians as a result of a trade agreement between Colombia and Israel in 1989 the Colombian government bought a batch of 12 ex-IAF Kfir C.2s and one TC.2, which were delivered to the Colombian Air Force (FAC) in 1989 and –1990. Since then, all the C.2s have been upgraded to the C.7 variant. The FAC Kfirs have been widely used in ground-attack missions during counter-insurgency operations against Colombian terrorists. Colombian Kfirs are armed with Python 3 IR-homing AAMs. As of 2004 two aircraft had been lost in accidents. As 2019, 23 Colombian IAI Kfirs are in service.

This plane is a little slow on maneuverability.
