The Tamiya kit allows building the modern American Lockheed Martin F-16CJ Fighting Falcon Block 50 with full combat arnament. The F-16 is one of the most famous modern aircraft in the world. It is exported to many countries, and thanks to its versatility and adaptability it is still used today in many roles. The design of the aircraft is still being developed with further modification packages, the latest of which is Block 50, 50/2 and 60. The electronics, armament and power unit are primarily developed.
In the box there are 6 frames with parts of the aircraft, a frame with transparent elements of the cockpit fairings and decals.

You should paint the whole model using modeling paints according to the proposed paint scheme in the instruction. It is important to remember that some plastic parts require painting before gluing. In the end, it is needed to apply decals according to markings or graphics in instruction.
