This is Revell's
1/72 F-16 MLU kit. It is an excellent kit which goes together without any major
problems. I only had some trouble with the alignment of the landing gear,
balancing the plane horizontal was a little difficult. I used Eduard's and
Part's Photoetched detail sets for this kit. Altough they are designed for
Hasegawa and Italeri kits, most of them could be used on this kit, too. Seat is
from Aires.
| Other than the
photoetched and resin detail pieces, I added the oxygen hose and the
canopy locking rubber. I manufactured the hose by wrapping a thin copper
wire around an insuline syringe and attaching a styrene rod at the end of
it using CA glue. The rubber is copper wire, too.

I replaced Revell's
Amraams by Hasegawa Amraams from a 1/72 weapon set. Decals are from the kit, and
they were beautiful. Daco factor was at work here. The special paint scheme
really makes the grey F-16 an eye catcher.
