Product Article by Steve Bamford on Feb 15 2011

 

This new resin, vacuformed and photo etch set from IsraCast provides you with two 600 gallon fuel tanks for the F-16.  These would be more accurate replacements for the tanks in the Academy F-16I kit or any F-16 from Tamiya or Academy.

This set includes the following:

  • 2 vacuformed fuel tanks with raised detail.
  • 2 pylons for fuel tanks
  • resin domes for rear of fuel tanks
  • Resin fins for rear of fuel tanks
  • photo etch detail parts
  • decals for markings on fuel tank

The vacuformed fuel tanks are made by Koster Aero Enterprises in the USA and have lovely raised detail.  The pylons have crisp raised detail as well as recessed panel lines.

This multi-media set addresses the accuracy issues on the big F-16 kits and will be a much welcomed addition for anyone wanting to add accurate drop tanks to their 1/32 F-16. 

I would like to thank IsraCast for providing me with this review sample.
