Nice pisc! sveral captured planes are as well migs, 15 or 17. One that is similar to mig can be some kind of sukhoi.

ok after looking at some of the pics the black plane is a supermarine spitfire there is also a silver one in there you thought was a mustang as well, the spit had wheels that folded to out board while the mustang folded in board and had a air scoop under the fusulage the yellow biplane is a Dehaviland DH82 tiger moth and the small blue plane on the stand is a "link" trainer well send you more info if you want.

Greetings. AWSOME PICTURES DOG!!! Looks like one hell of an awsome museum!!!
The airplane below the black Spitfire with the red spinner, I don't know its name, and can't find the book, but it was a surplus ME-109 airframe, I believe a factory or something was captured. There were no proper engines available though, so the same engines which power the Stuka were thrown on to it, creating a monstrosity of an airplane.
The one called the Nadesico, looks like an AT-6 Harvard (Texan as they were called in the States) A WW2 Trainer, with one awsome loud engine sound!!
I believe the Red Biplane is a Boeing Stearman, although I can't be quite sure. The Twin Boom Silver Jet, labled "Some Jet" Is a Dehavilland Sea Venom, and right after it is the DH Vampire

Nadesico could be Texan, although... didnt they have more blades? Some more details are not corresponding, but could be version thing.
Disregard I remember wrong. Still, I love the flames on startup and shutdown and the sound.
Plane under the black Spit is based on Me-109 airframe, but you are not right on engines nor the fact of captured factory.
Plane is type Avia S-199 Israeli name Sakin. Based on Bf-109 airframe, in the war made in Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia by and for the Germans. Used engine is Jumo 211F, powering He-111 and Ju-88 originally. Changed prop had so much sidekick that vertical tail was hard-fitted angled to the right side.
If you were in Heyl ha-Avir of Hatzerim, this might be it. (http://www.vrtule.info/images/stories/recenze/s199/historie_maule-04.jpg)
