recon Posted October 3, 2021 Posted October 3, 2021 I have the Tamiya F-16, which intake/exhaust do I use. Not a rivet counter so not concerned about the landing gear. Thanks for your input. Mike 1
Peterpools Posted October 4, 2021 Posted October 4, 2021 "When the General Electric engine was first fitted on Block 30 models, it was soon realized that this engine required more air than the Pratt & Whitney engine. To increase the airflow, the intake was widened at the opening, resulting in the MCID (Modular Common Inlet Duct), or "Bigmouth" intake. This intake first appeared on F-16D 86-0044 and F-16C 86-0262. All previous Block 30s have the NSI intake, while all subsequent Block 30, 40, 50 and 60 aircraft have the MClD intake. The MCID intake can be distinguished by a much larger opening than the NSI".
