Historical Context and Application

The F-16 Fighting Falcon is one of the world’s most well-known multirole fighters, manufactured in the United States and operated worldwide from the 1970s to the present day. It has distinguished itself in numerous conflicts, including Operation Desert Storm and NATO missions in Yugoslavia. The components in the Eduard set represent the late-type wheels, used on F-16s operated by the air forces of the USA, Poland, Belgium, Israel, Norway, Taiwan, and several other countries.
