I think you are looking at a Saab Viggen. Saab has made some really unique planes over the years. They are unconventional but seem to work well.

It's not a Viggen. The landing gear on a Viggen is on the "inside" of the main wheel and the engine intake on a Viggen is more "oval" (not as round) as this one.

It's not a Harrier. They all have a very pronounced "anhedral" wing (wings point down).

It's not an IAI Kfir (the landing gear is not the same).

My best guess is: Mirage 4000

Re: ok,what plane is this?
It's a toy plane. Look at the residential houses and street wires in the background.
Mirage 4000 as the person above indicated.

Re: ok,what plane is this?
Yup, , , it's a model alright.

- Houses in the background
- No blast fence/barrier
- Missing inboard gear door
- Lower portion of the left gear strut looks quite typical

But what kind of plane is it you ask , , , , ,

Why??
Do you not know what you bought???

Re: ok,what plane is this?
I have to go with a Mirage, doesn't look like the correct nose for a Kfir Nor does the leading edge of the wing look correct for a Kfir, the Kfir has the Z shaped jog in the leading edge of the wing.
