There was also a 4-engine-pod delta F-16:  <_<


that's a nice one, do-able in plastic maybe, with appropriate scales (big F16, small Hustler)

I have added another F-16 on my site http://www.kristofmeunier.fr/f16ofil.htm
There was a supersonic Beluga it seems:  <_<

Tophe my friend, you have my F-16 to do list filled for many years to come!

Thanks! (trying to inspire modelers is the reason to post on this site) ;)

And today I am adding one more, like supersonic Mistel:  <_<

The mind BOGGLES at a glider F-16.  :o

Would it have needed longer wings?  ;) ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Thanks! (I take your surprise as cheers) ;)

PERFECT!  ;D

Or almost anyway, a true sailplane would have even longer wings, like an Ash25.

You are right, Kit, but a few months ago we played already in this direction (without removing the jet though) and I did not want to replicate, just adding a little more span on this glider 16S.

P.S. If I remember well, "16S" was the name of the gene which I was analysing on bacteria, that was my professional work 2012-2018.

Thanks!

And below is the top-secret SR-16, a fighter that was painted in black as Strategic Reco (to fool the spies) but hiding the revolutionary Stereo Radar double nose... <_<

I have discovered a new duet of twin-boom Falcons: <_<

Frank2056 presented a great Lee Richards Annular Wing Monoplane 1914. From this came (a long time later than 1914) a F-16 derivative :

Tophe,

have you seen this?:




Tophe

Thanks for the inspiration! ;D
Uh, as I don't understand which end is the front one, there are 2 possibilities of F-16 versions: :unsure:

There are no jet because this is mental power (or gliders) ;)
