Kinetic's 1/48 scale
F-16I Sufa

by Michael Hickey

Kinetic's 1/48 scale F-16I Sufa is available online from Squadron

This is my 1/48 Kinetic F-16I Sufa. It is finished in the markings of the Negev Squadron that's part of the Israeli Air Force.

The model is built mostly straight from the box except for the seats, Python 4 Air to Air missile and the GBU-15 Data Link Pod.

The H.U.D is scratchbuilt so is the Lightning Discharge Probes. I also moved the tail light down to its correct position. I also flattened the tyres to give a weighted look.

It is carring a heavy load of 2 600 Gallon fuel tanks, GBU-15 x 2, Python 4 Air to Air missiles x 2, Aim-120 missiles x 2 and the Data Link Pod is on the centre fuselage pylon.

I used Gunze Sangyo paints and for the exhuast can I used different shades of Allclad II.
