I announced the Cypriot R-57s some pages before,so here are they.
Note that in Cypriot Air Force (CAF) aircrafts change numbers often and they do not have CoAs of their Regiment.Only in pilots' uniforms can someone see theses CoAs.Cypriot pilots are trained in 120th Training Wing of RHAF in Kalamata since 1967 and also follow the training of RHAF pilots in School of Arms of Tactic.CAF have also some volunteer pilots from Hellenic Kingdom.All R-57BK/CK have air-refuelling capability and RHAF retains two of its B707KH fleet (12 total) in the Island for CAF needs.

apart from 'I don't know if those parts fit' I would like it if you would credit the respective artists.

-The Kh-29L was intergrated to Mirage F1EQ (Iraqis did it) using ATLIS pod,so is possible for a western system to use Soviet missiles.
-I can provide FD-scale Gabriel missile alone.

After some weight calculations I decide to delete the Mk143 devired Himera launchers and add more Adis I boxes (both missiles share diameter of 0.533m).Also I moved the 3D radar at rear mast,as in original Zara.Is the front Mk29 plausible or not?

Another variant with SUM-18 ASW missiles (Exocet MM39 variant inspired from sub-Dart),4 Chimeras,Mk26 mod 2 GMLS.With 16 SSM launchers she can be loaded with 4-16 SUM-18 or 4-12 SSM Adis II (turbojet MM39) or even MM40 Block 3 or any combination.

I Like your drawings Odysseus, but I don't like the image host you use. You don't get to see the drawing in full without clicking on the link, and when you do click on the link you get a load of teenage girls with photoshopped 'features' in banner ads across the page.
