SoftScience Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 I'm not very knowledgeable about the F-16, but I'd like to build a Block 30 machine from Germany in the 1980s. What would be the best kit (pref. 1/48) for the job? Does Tamiya's 25/32 kit have the appropriate parts? I have a great decal sheet. Now I just need a kit to go with it.

scotthldr Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 The Blk 25/32 kit can only be built as such, as it lacks the correct GE exhaust parts and only comes with the smaller NSP intake. You'll need the GE exhaust and larger MCID intake from the Blk 50 release, or if you haven't bought the kit yet get the F-16C/N Adversery kit as it comes with both combinations of exhuasts and intakes. Some early Blk30's had GE exhaust and small NSI intake, which a/c were you planning on building. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Hi, SoftScience, That kit (61101) comes with the small intake and P&W engine. Fernando Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotthldr Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 That is one of the jets to have the GE engine/exhaust and NSI(small)intake, to build this jet you will have to buy the F-16C/N 'Adversary' box This link has very good information and explains what is meant by GE/PW exhausts and NSI/MCID intakes. http://www.usaf-sig.org/index.php/component/content/article/82-f-16-viper-faq-stuff-you-wanted-to-know-about-the-f-16cd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polybebber Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Those markings would make it great looking model. Was she Spangdahlem based? Lothar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
