About product

Open exhaust nozzle of the F-16 with the F100-PW-220 engine, 1:72 scale

This is an accessory set, not an aircraft model. It replaces the engine exhaust nozzle with a part that has open petals, that is, in the position the nozzle moves to once the engine is shut down on a parked aircraft. This detail matters more on the F-16 than on other types for two reasons. First, the nozzle is very conspicuous because of the slender fuselage. Second, the F-16 is distinguished by its engine: aircraft with the powerplant of one manufacturer have petals shaped and arranged differently from aircraft with the unit of the other. This set is intended for the version designated F100-PW-220, that is, for one particular combination.

The real subject

The F-16 Fighting Falcon is a single-engine multirole combat aircraft. Powerplants from two different manufacturers were used on it during production, and the difference is visible from outside precisely at the rear: the shape of the rear fuselage and the arrangement of the nozzle petals differ. For a modeler that means the nozzle tells you which aircraft you are looking at.

Usage tips

  • Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water; residue stays on the surface after printing.
  • Cut the print supports off as close to the part as possible and sand the marks down; they have nothing to do with casting.
  • Check which powerplant your subject carried, because the sets are not interchangeable.
  • Paint the inside of the nozzle before you fit it, because afterward a brush will not reach in there.
  • Bond with super glue and apply a primer before painting.

Who it is for

The set is for modelers of modern combat aircraft who want the right nozzle for a particular version of the machine. The work is not difficult, but it is preceded by a decision that cannot be made by eye.

It is not an aircraft model. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

On the F-16 the powerplants of two different manufacturers differ in the shape and arrangement of the nozzle petals and of the rear fuselage. The sets are therefore not interchangeable.

The position of the petals once the engine is shut down on a parked aircraft. A model with a closed nozzle looks as though its engine were running.

It is not. It is an accessory set for a kit you already have.
