Kagemusha Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 As I can't find mention of this being a hard fact, have edited the title Tim. Academy did release a version with a B tail, but I think that's the closest we're going to get. timvkampen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenshb Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 The Academy kit was first released as a C, then as a Sufa with AFV CLub releasing the kit as a D Block 52+ with Republic of Singapore Air Force decals. There is a separate tailfin for the Sufa/Block 52+ and a tailfin with the wide base for the C and D models. The fuselage has a flat spot that corresponds to the larger "footprint" of the C/D tailfin base. An A/B tailfin would require a new fuselage preferably as the panel lines either side of the tailfin base are different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 You're right Jens, but even so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloorwestSiR Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 The AFV Club B kit has a full resin tail and base, along with unbulged resin MLG doors. The fuselage is still the same as the original Academy kit so the panels would need correcting. Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RNoAF Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 If they made a1/32 F-16A/B/AM/BM they would sell loads of kits. So come on Kinetic-guys!!! timvkampen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Howie Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 If they did the A’s and other non late blocks plus a 2 seater they would sell a pile. Big money though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
