As I thought, it's the same basic F-16CG/CJ kit, with updated main wheels, glare shield (both from the F-16I kit, which are still not quite right BTW) and the WAR HUD, which doesn't look all that accurate. A new decal sheet comes with, which is good as not all of those Viper subjects have been covered in 32nd.

Obviously the terribly shaped intakes and other major inaccuracies will still be present in baseline kit.
Corrected intakes, gear doors, and wheels would be nice for this kit.
