A Rafalcon?

[Firefox]

It's a Rafale...


It's an F-16...


It's an F-CK-1!


No... It's non of the above. It's basically a left over Rafale body after I took the wings for the Alternate JASDF F-2 project and left over wings and horizontal tail of an F-16. Somehow when cobble out together, it turns out not too bad. One can say this may be how a navalised F-16 would look like

Turned out well!

That looks brilliant! 

[Pellson]

It's great!!

Nice job. Looks entirely feasible.

Well done,  isn't the F-16N the naval version or have I been misinformed?

The F-16N is the fairly basic F-16C modified for use by the US Navy at the Top Gun school. They lasted 7 years (1987-1994) before the wings cracked under heavy use. They have all been retired now and some sent to museums.

They were replaced by ordinary F-16A that were meant to go to Pakistan but got embargoed and sat in the desert for years.

Great mix of ideas!

That looks good! 
Very similar to the F-CK-1 Ching Kuo but prettier.

Gorgeous!! 

Years ago I did the opposite.  Rafale wings on an F-16.  It's on here somewhere.   I think you did a better job than ai did though.  Top notch Whiffery!

The Search tool found it (in 2007!), thanks!
