This new resin set from IsraCast includes 28 resin pieces to be assembled to create 2 Vertical Ejection Rack - Ver 2 for your next Israeli F-16.  The Vertical Ejection Rack 2 permits the center pylon on the F-16 to carry 2 bombs instead of just one.  The bombs mount side by side on this rack which then attaches to the center pylon on the F-16 wing which permits the bombs to drop vertically which improves the accuracy of unguided bombs.  This bomb rack can carry Mk.83, Mk.82, M117 iron bombs and several cluster bombs like the Mk.20, CBU-52/58 and the SUU-30.

The resin parts are cleanly cast and the resin detail is quite crisp and well done.  The attachment points to the casting blocks will be easy to cut through to remove the parts from the casting block.  The single page instruction sheet includes assembly instructions of these resin parts as well as photos of the real Vertical Ejection Rack.  The assembly process looks easy enough and once you are done you will be able to double the bomb load on your F-16 center pylon and lets face it.......nothing looks better than a model loaded with bombs and missiles

I was quite excited when I saw this Vertical Ejection Rack being released by IsraCast as this item will permit the modeller to increase the bomb loads on their Israeli F-16.  Very nice indeed

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