Italeri 2786 1/48 F-16A Fighting Falcon - Detailed scale replica

The F-16 Fighting Falcon was conceived as a single-seat air superiority fighter and later developed into a versatile multirole aircraft. This Italeri 2786 kit recreates the F-16As sleek form and the distinctive frameless bubble canopy that gives the pilot broad visibility.

The model reflects signature design elements such as the side-mounted control stick and the flight control architecture that improved agility. Italeri models these aspects to convey the aircrafts engineering in 1/48 scale.

Modelling characteristics and presentation

At 1/48 scale the kit offers a satisfying mix of fine detail and straightforward assembly. A comprehensive colour guide and a super decal sheet covering five versions let you build an accurate and attractive static model for display.

Specification summary

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Material: High-quality plastic
  • Assembly: Requires glue
  • Paint: Not included
  • Decals: Super decal sheet for 5 versions
Build time depends on skill and detail level. Expect several evenings for assembly and basic painting, longer if you add weathering or extra detailing.
The kit is well detailed out of the box. Modellers seeking higher fidelity can add aftermarket resin or photo-etched parts, but these are optional rather than necessary.
Apply a smooth gloss base coat before decalling, trim decals where needed and use decal softening solution on complex curves to prevent silvering and improve adhesion.
