habu2 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) You need one with the small NSI inlet and P&W engine. You will need to go aftermarket or kitbash for the vertical tail base and, depending on your goals, do a ton of rescribing. IIRC the Tamiya Aggressor/Adversary boxing #61106 has both inlets and both engines. There are no 2 seater Tamiya kits so again aftermarket or kit bash the cockpit & canopy. .

Eli Raphael Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 Thanks KASL has the tail, nose and upper fuselage. Just needed to know which kit to use. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Tamiya F-16C block 32/52 Thunderbirds is a good starting point which will eliminate the need for painting the inlet duct. Alternativelly the F-16C block 25/32 which gives you additional A2G weapons. Then lastly you have the F-16C/N which can be built as small mouth block 25/32/42/52 or be converted to F-16A, or be built as block 30/50 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vaildog Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Also you’ll need to add the spotlight behind the radome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 Spotlight was not part of MLU. Only certain countries had the spotight option, those that did that then went with MLU retained the spotlight. It was not added to those that did not already have it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Portugal had the spotlight included in their ex-USAF Vipers that was MLU updated. This is 15142 which has just completed MLU update from one of the spare airframes Portugal aquired a decade ago; https://www.airfighters.com/photo/228588/M/Portugal-Air-Force/General-Dynamics-F-16AM-Fighting-Falcon/15142/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
polar bear Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Consider about main gear doors and light main gears, Thunderbirds boxing has them. You need early wheels from Eduard, Royale Resin or Reskit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
