Introduction

Catalog
The F-16C "Fighting Falcon" is a single-engine multirole fighter aircraft originally developed
for the United States Air Force (USAF). Designed as an air superiority day fighter, it evolved into
a successful all-weather multirole aircraft. The F-16C features an internal M61 Vulcan cannon
and multiple locations for mounting weapons and other mission equipment. Operating in nearly
30 countries to this day, the F-16 has distinguished its place in aviation history.
Freewing has modeled this brilliant aircraft in EPO foam with a 70mm electric ducted fan
(EDF) powerplant. With a 1306mm length and 878mm wingspan, this 1/12 scale flying replica
includes many exciting features! An accurate scale outline with sharp surface details and panel
lines make this model stand out at your airfield. Removable main wings and a magnetic nose
cone make transport very convenient. The cockpit battery bay cover is secured with a sliding
latch to prevent separation during flight, and the entire aircraft is reinforced with strategic
placement of carbon tubes to withstand vigorous flying maneuvers.
Our Freewing 70mm F-16C V2 model jet uses electric retractable landing gear for lower drag
and better scale appearance during flight. The model is offered in three different powerplant
options: 4s Standard, 6s Upgrade, and 6s Professional. These powerplants achieve a maximum
flying speed of 125kph, 140kph, and 165kph, respectively. The aircraft is designed for stability,
strong climbing performance, and short takeoff distance, suitable for all levels of jet pilots. The
aircraft can also maintain a high alpha of 30 degrees to demonstrate its superior low speed
stability.
We feature this exciting aircraft in the modern three tone gray US Air Force base colors, and
three decal sets are included for you to choose from to customize your model from various actual
Air Force squadrons.
