Responsibility details are not available.
A printed replacement for the engine exhaust nozzle on a model of the F-16 fighter in 1:72 scale, in the variant for the F100-PW-220 powerplant and with the petals in the open position. The set is cut for the Revell kit. That matters because the same nozzle also comes out in a version for another kit, and the designation of the type alone would not tell the two apart. This is an addition, not a model of the aircraft.
Over its production life the F-16 was delivered with two entirely different powerplants from two makers, and the exhaust nozzle is where that shows most. The F100 version has a different petal geometry and different outer skinning from the rival engine. The open position of the petals matches a machine parked with the engine shut down, when the nozzle is not drawn in to a narrow section. That is the state in which aircraft are most often photographed on the flight line.
The printed parts are held on thin supports. Snip them off close to the part and level the face with a file or a scalpel. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue). Apply a primer before painting. Leave the inside of the nozzle lighter and tone the outer petals toward a darker, heat-stained shade. Bring out the crisp edges with a dry brush.
This is an accessory, not a complete model. It is supplied unassembled and unpainted.
