Hey guys. I never was much of a fan for the F-16, as I come from a Navy/Marine Corps family, but after seeing TwoBobs 1/48th F-16N Old School Aggressors sheet I feel like building one. I seem to be having a hard time finding Hasegawa's 1/48th F-16N, so if anyone can find an online store I could order one from that would be great (US/Canada only, with US being much perfered). But if I can not seem to find one and must use Hase's F-16C,what are the major differences from the F-16N and F-16C?
And I was just kidding about the Air Force puke thing......I respect all our servicemen (and women to be politically correct) as I plan on joining the Corps after college.

I couldn't help you in finding the Hasegawa F-16N, but I can tell you a little about the difference between a C and an N. Most of the differences are in the avionics and other internal stuff, things such as a different radar. Also the Navy/Marine F-16s lacked the 20mm cannon, however the cannon port is still there.
All in all, an F-16C would be suited just fine for the TwoBobs decals. There are several other differences, but none so drastic as to cause a problem. Personally I'd also like to build the Marine F-16 because of the paint scheme. If that didn't help, I hope you can find what you're looking for.
