Hey Mark, besides the obvious Kinetic F-16XL I used the Wolfpack WPD48116 F-16E Block 60 Falcon UAE Cockpit Set, the Authentic Decals 48-67 F-15E Strike Eagles with mission markings and the Aires 4440 F-16C/D block 30/40/50/60 exhaust nozzle. The wheelbays were scratch build. The kit comes with an impressive amount of weapons, but I had to add some from by sparebox. The kit itself has also several extra's like the IIF antennas and breakchute.
The CTF's are from Attack Squadron, these where too short, so I added an extra segment in the middle from styrene.

Album info

In March 1981 the USAF announced the ETF program to replace the F-111. McDonnell Douglas entered the competition with the F-15E, a modified F-15D. General Dynamics summited the competition with a heavily altered F-16, the F-16XL. The F-15 was the favourable aircraft for a long time, two engines and a bigger payload. But when General Dynamics refitted their F-16XL late 1984 with the new General Electric F110 engine, super cruise suddenly came into reach. With the new and uncertain adversaries on the other side of the iron curtain, the mystic MiG-29 and Su-27, this feature made the F-16XL the winner of the competition.
The F-16E Strike Falcon came into service in June 1988 and 540 where produced. It is still in service with the USAF, Israel and Australia.
