Recommended Posts

Hey guys!

This is the IAF F-16I Sufa based on the Kinetic 1:72 kit.

After market sets that were used include the following:

-Aires cockpit set (AI 7262)

-Aires exhaust (7252)

-Eduard PE set 73372

Wheel bays were mostly improved using sprue pieces and Evergreen plastic.

Thank you for your kind words and comments! I have moved photos to flickr (instead of postimage) and reduced image size, hoping they will display better.

Sweet build! Makes me want to build one for myself.

Was the Aires cockpit hard to fit? Not too long ago I've completed Hasegawa F-16C with Aires pit and it was pretty hard to squeeze in.

Same here :(/> .....the Aires cockpit was a bit of a nightmare to fit in the model. A lot of sanding was required as well as I had issues getting the front instrument panel shroud into the correct position.

Your Sufa is excellent; I congratulate you! The paint and weathering is perfect, and I have to say that you have chosen an excellent payload, with tanks, Spice, Python 5, and AIM-120, along with targeting and navigation pods...perfect for a Sufa. Once again, congratulations! The Bat squadron markings are killer, too.
