The kit as the title rote wash the best by far for me beter than the Hasegawa model i think but this is my opion...

The start come from the cokpit in which i put the oxygen hose that made it with fuse wire,then the hole cokpit painted with brush with humbrol colors and weatherd a bit with a wash and some chalk pastels

next come the close of the fusalge it's easy but it wants to close many puty...then i cut the outboard flaps to put it in the down position as the real and then i glue them to the fuselage the model have been painted with my favorite brush and for the color i used the 125 from humbrol for the metalcik areas i used 11 from humbrol...then come the wash with black enamel and then the clear varnish i do it with future.The i use and place the decals of the box but ttey are very bad an not mach thick...so i use a huge amount of mr.mark softer and then i put over them again future....

M8's thanks a lot of all us for your good cretics...now the lantirn targeting pod AN/AAQ-14 i will replace it with the newest and beter Sniper XR(Pantera)pod (from the kinetic F-16 kit) another think that i have do is to change the AIM-9/AIM-120 rail launchers of the kit with the aproprieate real rail LAU-128/129 from tamiya F-16 kit.

And now i want your opinion for the load-out of the plane...the choices are 2

first:2xAIM-120B AMRAAMS ,2xAIM-9L/M SIDEWINDERS ,4xGBU-12 PAVEWAYII ,2x600 USgal fuel tank from war reserve material

second: 1xAIM-120B AMRAAM ,1xAIM-9M SIDEWINDER ,1xACMI POD ,1xSUU-20 POD ,2x600 USgal fuel tank

:huh:

I would go with that one, That would be an impressive loadout....however if you check out the loadouts here you may get some better ideas about how you want to go about it.

Strike Eagle Loadouts #4 has a sniper pod included.
