I bought a heap of the Oddzial Ozmy Phantoms and Mig 21s intending to use them with my Tumbling dice planes for Vietnam but the size difference is just too much for me so I though I could use them for another conflict. What else could i use them for? I thought maybe Yom Kippur war? I would have close to 20+ of each of them. Were there big enough engagements to use all of them?

Yom Kippur is the obvious one, but that does sound a lot for a single engagement. Maybe do some of them for Iran-Iraq?

Area 88? I know, in the anime they flew an eclectic mix of Western aircraft against mostly a bunch of MiG-17s, but an imagi-nations scenario gives you a lot of room for artistic license.

What-ifs over Europe, maybe Korea too.

The Israelis only operated the longer nosed F-4E variant, but the Iranians had both the F-4D and F-4E.

Yep, Arabs vs. Israelis and Cold War Europe.

Iran vs. Iraq, and Japan vs. Russia/China too.
