A detail set for the cockpit of the F-16C Block 52 in the version up to 1996, 1:48 scale, for modelers who want a pilot's station that matches exactly.
Responsibility details are not available.
This item is not an aircraft kit but a detail set for the cockpit of an F-16C Block 52 model in 1:48 scale. It relates to the earlier form of the pilot's station, that is to the state up to 1996. The cockpit of the single-seat Sixteen is practically all on view under the large bubble canopy, so it is the place where worked-out detail pays off most on a model.
The F-16C is the single-seat version of the Fighting Falcon with expanded avionics and all-weather capability. The designation Block 52 belongs to machines with an engine from Pratt & Whitney; blocks with a powerplant from the competing maker were produced in parallel. The internal equipment of the cockpit changed over the years of production and later upgrades, with displays added and the layout of the control panels altered. That is why detail sets are distinguished by the period they relate to, and this distinction is given in the name.
Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water and let them dry, or the paint will not hold on the surface. Cut the casting blocks off with a fine saw and level the mating surfaces by wet sanding with respiratory protection. Resin parts are glued with cyanoacrylate. Try the cockpit tub dry before gluing the fuselage together, because this is where finding out too late that material has to be taken off is paid for most often. The interior comes out best with a dark wash and fine highlighting of the panel edges.
