The YF-16A was the second F-16 built and was used to evaluate the characteristics of the new type. One of the important factors of the evaluation of a combat machine is in the determining of a proper colour scheme to help conceal the plane from the eyes of the enemy pilots.

The markings on this model of the YF-16A represent one of the interesting colour patterns used to determine the effectiveness of the camouflage.

Eventually a scheme of all grey shades was adopted, but it is interesting to note that the latest French camouflage schemes for their new fighters is almost identical to this scheme.

The set includes:

•Realistically engraved/raised panel lines and other bod characteristics.
•Detailed cockpit and landing gear.
•Seated pilot figure.
•Clear cockpit canopy.
•Auxiliary fuel tank and missiles.
•Authentic markings.
•Illustrated assembly guide.
