ModelF-16 (YF-16) First Flight Edition 1974 - a tribute to the first test flight of the F-16!

The F-16 in the test version from 1974 is a real treat for both adult collectors and younger aviation enthusiasts.

This set is a tribute to the first test flight of the F-16, which took place on February 2, 1974! Despite the passage of more than fifty years since its flight, thanks to systematic development and increasing combat capabilities, this aircraft still retains high combat values and will be the equipment of the US Air Force until at least 2030, and in other countries even longer.

The F-16 (in the prototype version of the YF-16) is one of the most famous multi-role fighters, which was developed in the United States in the 1970s. It was equipped with the Pratt & Whitney F100-PW-100 engine, which allowed it to achieve high speeds (up to Mach 2.05) and great maneuverability.

The F-16 is a multi-role aircraft, which means that it can act as both an interceptor and a combat support aircraft. It can perform attacks on air, surface and ground targets. It is capable of carrying a wide range of weapons, including air-to-air, air-to-ground missiles, bombs, and on-board guns.

Don't wait! Build a legend and add it to your collection!

Advantages of the F-16® (YF-16) First Flight 1974 building block set:

375 elements - The set includes 375 precisely made blocks that will allow you to create a test model of the F-16 Fighting Falcon® in the colors of the first flight.
