Revell 03992 - Lockheed Martin F-16C Fighting Falcon (1:144)

Revell 03992 Lockheed Martin F-16C Fighting Falcon 1:144

This plastic kit represents the Lockheed Martin F-16C Fighting Falcon in 1:144 scale. The F-16 is regarded as one of the most versatile multirole fighter aircraft, and the F-16C Block 50/52 branch also covered missions aimed at suppressing enemy air defences. That background is reflected here mainly in the selection of external stores included in the kit.

Specific marking and included parts

The kit contains 70 parts and decals for one specific aircraft: an F-16C of the 149th Fighter Wing, Texas Air National Guard, finished in the 2012 65th anniversary scheme at Lackland AFB, San Antonio, Texas. Included in the box are 2 AGM-88 HARM missiles, 2 laser-guided bombs, AIM-120 missiles, centreline and underwing tanks, plus the cockpit and undercarriage parts. This gives the modeller a compact F-16C with a distinctive commemorative scheme and a useful selection of stores.

Model dimensions

The finished model is 105 mm long with a wingspan of 66 mm. Revell lists this release as a new tooling with recessed panel lines. Recommended paint references are 31 and 52 as basic colours, with 05, 09, 43, 45, 57, 65, 74, 91, 99 and 301 for additional details.
