Collector's choice Tamiya 61101 - 1/48 Lockheed Martin F-16C Block 25/32 Fighting Falcon ANG Model Kit  [61101]

Introducing the Tamiya 1/48 F-16C Block 25/32 Fighting Falcon scale kit

The F-16 Fighting Falcon is a benchmark in fighter design, prized for its adaptability. The Block 25 and 32 versions introduced notable avionics and engine refinements, widely used by ANG units. This Tamiya kit aims to mirror those updates in accurate 1/48 scale form for modellers seeking a faithful replica.

Accurate moulding and structural detail

Tamiya has included updated parts to reflect the Pratt & Whitney exhaust and the smaller intake characteristic of these blocks. The model shows careful shaping of the main landing gear and the gear wells, and photo-etched parts for wing reinforcement are offered separately to boost detail.

Ordnance, pods and external tanks

The kit supplies a broad complement of stores including AIM-9L/M and AIM-9X Sidewinders, AIM-120 AMRAAMs and GBU-12 laser-guided bombs complete with clear components for the guidance section. Wing and centreline fuel tanks plus the LITENING II pod are included to complete operational configurations.

Finish and display considerations

Building the kit produces a display-worthy model with strong collector appeal. A pilot figure is part of the set and three decal sheets provide U.S. Air National Guard marking choices for authentic finishes.
