A new 3D printed AN/ALE-50 Towed Decoy System in 1/48th scale is provided by Fab Scale as a drop-in replacement for the F-16CJ Fighting Falcon Tamiya kit.
Note: There is no official website for Fab Scale at the time of this review, but a few foreign hobby websites are selling this product.
In the Package and Product Notes
The sample review came in a plastic bag with a cardboard topper for a pegboard display.
Two (2) AN/ALE-50 units are printed with pink salmon-colored resin. These parts replace kit parts J30, J33, and J34. The printed resolution is very fine with no visible build-up layers and the print quality is excellent.
Review Process
I started by separating the parts from their base by using side-cutting nippers. Next, wet sanding removed the remaining support nubs.
