1:72 F-16 Fighting Falcon (F100-PW-229) - open exhaust nozzle (3D Printed) is a printed exhaust nozzle in the open position. The set is cut for the Hasegawa kit.
Responsibility details are not available.
A printed replacement for the engine exhaust nozzle on a model of the F-16 fighter in 1:72 scale, in the variant for the more powerful F100-PW-229 powerplant and with the petals in the open position. The set is cut for the Hasegawa kit. That matters because the same nozzle also comes out in a version for another kit, and the designation of the type would not tell the two apart. This is an addition, not a model of the aircraft.
The F100-PW-229 powerplant is a later and more powerful form of the same engine series that the earlier F-16 blocks received. It was fitted to newer machines and differs from its predecessor in the outer shape of the rear end as well as in the layout of the nozzle petals. That is exactly why it is not an interchangeable part for the modeler: anybody who picks the nozzle for the wrong engine version will build a machine that never actually looked like that.
The printed parts are held on thin supports. Snip them off close to the part and level the face with a file or a scalpel. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Apply a primer before painting. Leave the inside of the nozzle lighter, tone the outer petals toward a darker, heat-stained shade and bring out the edges with a dry brush.
This is an accessory, not a complete model. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted.
