During the development of F-16, one of the early designs shows that it has a twin tail like the YF-17 then. I decided to make one with a modified F/A-18 tails. Hope you guys like it  ;)

Frickin more than like dude..that's awesome man..that's a very cool looking build  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:
Funnily enough I have a F18 which is going to show up here pretty soon and it's not normal  :wacko:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Yes, that works for me! Well done!

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Loolks better than a 'real' F-16, and an F-18 too!  :thumbsup:

Very nice!  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:
That's the development route i chose for my F-16W variants, even before i read anything about it. Indeed, the Viper was to have twin tails at first but the wind tunnel test results were showing problems and the GD designer team chose to go with a taller, single tail and ventral strakes for an easy solution to solve the issues.

Whatever.

Looks great!

... I'm sure I could be persuaded to offer suggestions for improvement. That might lead to me being asked to build an even better one, though. And that ain't gonna happen anytime soon  ;D  ;D

What next, an F-18 with single tail?

Now that would be just silly, wouldn't it?  ;D
