No ist is not a F-16, not at all, the japanese need a fighter based on the F-16 but with more weapon hard points, ant ship missles and a front shield on the conopy, the bigger waight brings bigger wings and rudder and lot of electronical systems for japanese missles..
The Hasegawa kits are better than the Hasegawa F-16, more details and better molded parts,single and double seater, prototyp and combat aircrafts.. time for the pictures
