Product Detail

Limited reissue of the Hasegawa 1/48 scale F-16CJ kit with decals to mark it as either a Fighting Falcon of the 35th Fighter Wing based at Misawa AB, Japan, or a plane of the 20th FW based at Shaw AFB, South Carolina.

The F-16C Fighting Falcon is a tactical fighter developed from the F-16A PLUS.

Since the F-16 was first adopted by the U.S. Air Force,
it has been undergoing improvements based on the Multi-Phase Improvement Program (MSIP). In the F-16C, the radar fire control system has been upgraded from the APG-66 to the APG-68 in order to improve target search and identification capabilities.

In addition, the new AIM-120 (AMRAAM) missiles have been added, allowing for simultaneous attacks on multiple targets,
greatly improving the aircraft's air combat capabilities. The engine bay has been improved so that the aircraft can be equipped with either
the Pratt & Whitney F-100 or the General Electric F-110 engines. Externally, the vertical tail root, which houses the ECM equipment, has been extended forward, giving it a large bulge.
