Cockpit Mystery Solved

All right, I do have an answer to the question if the TA-4s received the RADA upgrade.  I emailed Ra'anan Weiss at IsraDecal Studios my question.

The answer is - No.  It looks like the general cockpit layout is standard TA-4F with a few twists.  Front cockpit had something else in place of the radar scope.  Rear cockpit had the video monitor where the radar scope should be and offset to the right leaving a blank space between it and the eight-ball - look on pg 38 of Steve Ginter's book on two-seat Skyhawks for what this monitor looks like.

Once I finish up the cockpits I will post pictures of them.  Stay tuned.
