Rob, thats the one, please share when you find time.

Cheers.

Default Canadian Carrier use with Israel in the war of independance of 1949

Hey Arie,

Just out of historical curiosity were Canadian Mk2 UC 's used in that War on your side ?

Pictures ?

Thanks.

Bob

this is interesting. Israely army never used UC although there are many wrecks in the country. some of those were booty (is that the right word?)
from the war of indipendenc in 1948, the Egyptian used them. some of them were left by the British army who ruled the country at the time.
the majority sorce were caught from the Egyptian army in 1956 in the SUEZ
conflict. as far as I know, there is onky one that is restored and is runing. I hope my will be the second one
