IAI Kfir TC7

ISRAEL AIRCRAFT INDUSTRIES I.A.I Kfir TC.7 for SFP1/WOV/WOE/WOI not testet in SF2.

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A little background:

 

The twin seater variant of I.A.I Kfir appeared shortly after the entrance in service of the single seater variant C2. Technical data refers to the type as multirole fighter with full capacities despites the minor amount of fuel , elevated weight and the lack of DEFA cannons. With the entrance of service of the Kfir c7 variant, several airframes were updated to this standard. Strangely, there are many airframes displayed in museums and photos that show at least the left cannon mounted in the usual position between intake and left wing. Other photos testify that twin seater Kfirs of the south American air forces mount both cannons, as it happened for the major updates of Mirage III in “Pantera” and “Cheetah”, sign that at least , with the technological evolution, the space reserved for the cannons was for new free. For some other, this was an eventual resolution of the fatigue problems of the trainer variant or adoption of the two seater nose on to a single seater airframe with less hours of flight.

 

In Israeli service the aircraft was used mainly for trainer purposes, as chase plane for prototypes and test bench for new systems and subsystems. Some reports testify that some TC2-TC7were used as ELINT platforms to study the electromagnetic emissions of Arab defence systems.
