Astra do them in 1/144th, 1/72nd. and 1/48th....even come with the uncensored version! You can guess which one I'm going to do! Plus they have some other really cool ones for the F-16 as well! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col. Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 The Astra decals are rather nice but I also like Italian Diana, hence why I'd love to get hold of the Hasegawa double kit, 'cause how can I fail to adore a girl who can quite easily kill me but chooses not to 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modelling minion Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Go on then Rich you can add my name to the list. I really fancy doing one of the red and white test birds from Edwards AFB so this will be the ideal opportunity to do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Heres a kool one for us to consider as a build. A Moroccan F-16 carrying a Harpoon ASM, post #4 in the first link for the Camouflage photo. And this link for the Harpoon info. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 Hi Dennis they could actually carry and use Harpoons, they did all the testing for them as far as I know, and are certified, but I don't know who actually uses them. Here one I did earlier, with the newer version, the AGM-84E (SLAM E), looks cool with them fitted. They are also certified to carry the Rafael Popeye and Popeye II (or Popeye Lite, called AGM -142 Have Nap in the US) and are a regular fitment to the Israeli F-16I Sufa's. ..and again here's one I did earlier also with the Data-link pod fitted. If I don't do a Tiger Meet aircraft for thi GB then it'll be an Israeli F-16I Sufa probably in this config! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christer A Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) A teen jet in 2021? Perhaps that is the proper timing for a Venezuelan Viper: http://www.f-16.net/g3/f-16-photos/album41/album19/8924_001_001 I can always start in a GB...

True the link was just there to show that Morocco was only purchasing the Harpoon not using it. Of course you are correct that no one is using them. but i was just attempting to show that its an interesting option for a build. A Moroccan A.F. Viper carrying a Anti ship missile. Its something I think would catch attention on a shelf or show table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mozzy19 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Did someone say F-16? Count me in. I’m sure my F-16 stash will provide a suitable victim when the time comes along... Sean 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anatol Pigwa Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Make it two to go. I am always up for a Viper, and it will be either a dutch, a norwegian or a polish one in 1:72, (did not decide o. a kit yet though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arniec Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 well go on then. I am in. I have got a few in the stash. also a F-16 XL. would be nice to build that in a what iff scheme. If not allowed I have enough other options most with Israeli decals. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, hi Arnold, you know I never have a prob with Whatif's For such a different and unusual version of the F-16 it should be fine.....in proper F-16 Sqn colours. That said, last time I allowed the Japanese Mitsubishi F-2 into the build, os it'll be ok this time as well. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now thinking about the XL that would be nice, but I could also do a Dutch F-16 in camo. and theN more like the NF-5 schemes they used. so I have some options. O, there is also a Israelian version in the box, but I already did that one about ten years ago in 1/32 scale. I will see with what I come up with.

Now we'll have to wait and see when Enzo goes to his magic box/magic spreadsheet to see the grand start date. We should start a sweep to see if we can pick the date! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FortyEighter Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I'll join in this one when it's scheduled. Almost certainly a 1/48 Kinetic offering (or two), have decals for the Italian "Diana" (would look good alongside my Dutch version which is now ready for gloss varnish and decals) or perhaps the "Top gun Anniversary" blue aggressor two seater or a Polish one with CFTs and even a Tigger too?

What Would Enzo Matrix Do, our Head Honcho of Group Builds @Enzo Matrix when posed with the dilemma of which out of many kits to make will always say "Make them all", which is why he often has about six kits in any one group build. A wise person will keep their deliberations to themselves and not give Enzo the chance to browbeat them into building more than they can cope with in any GB. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
