Description
This 1:72 F-16C release focuses on the 157th FS “Swamp Fox” of the South Carolina ANG as the unit began receiving new F-16 fighters in July 1983. The key angle here is the squadron’s evolution into a Wild Weasel role, with the later addition of the HARM Targeting System noted in the reference text.
A solid choice for a display lineup if you like jets tied to a specific unit story, ideal for modern USAF and ANG themed shelves in 1:72.
