HISTORY ASPECTS -
The F-16CM "Viper Demo" aircraft, tail number 91-0395, is a specialized demonstration variant operated by the U.S. Air Force at Shaw Air Force Base in 2024. Originally built as an F-16C Block 50, 91-0395 was adapted for the USAF's Viper Demonstration Team, tasked with showcasing the high-performance capabilities of the F-16 Fighting Falcon. Sporting eye-catching paint schemes and tuned for precise handling, this Viper thrills crowds at airshows worldwide while highlighting the skill and professionalism of America's pilots.
Although 91-0395 itself is dedicated to air demonstration, its F-16CM Block 50 brethren have seen extensive combat service. The F-16CM variant, optimized for the SEAD (Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses) mission, was heavily employed in conflicts such as Operation Allied Force over Kosovo, Operation Iraqi Freedom, and ongoing operations in the Middle East. These missions capitalized on the F-16CM’s advanced radar, targeting pods, and versatile armament to deliver precision strikes while countering enemy radar and missile threats.
By 2024, the Viper Demo Team’s use of 91-0395 served not only as a recruiting tool but also as a living symbol of the F-16's long-standing combat legacy. The aircraft performed dramatic aerial routines across the United States and abroad, emphasizing the Viper’s speed, agility, and adaptability. Through its performances, the team honored both current airmen and the historic achievements of the F-16 community across decades of service.
Now you can bring home the energy and pride of the Viper Demo Team with this incredible 1 - 72 scale model of F-16CM 91-0395. Featuring authentic 2024 markings from Shaw AFB and meticulously detailed to reflect its airshow configuration, this model is perfect for aviation enthusiasts and collectors alike!
