HISTORY ASPECTS:
The F-16C Fighting Falcon, tail number 85-474, served with the 706th Aggressor Squadron, part of the U.S. Air Force’s elite team responsible for simulating adversary air threats. Nicknamed "Rockslide," this jet was painted in an eye-catching two-tone gray and dark camouflage pattern designed to mimic enemy aircraft and tactics during high-end training exercises. The aircraft was stationed at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, and later operated in close coordination with the 926th Wing, enhancing the realism of Red Flag and other advanced aerial combat training events.
"Rockslide" played a key role in preparing U.S. and allied pilots for real-world engagements by flying as a “bad guy” in simulated dogfights and strike missions. Its purpose was not to deploy in combat zones directly but to provide aggressive training environments that reflected the challenges of contemporary threats, such as those posed by advanced Russian or Chinese fighters. The aircraft frequently participated in major exercises across the continental United States and abroad, pushing frontline squadrons to refine their tactics, survivability, and decision-making under pressure.
While F-16C 85-474 did not see traditional combat, its contribution to combat readiness was invaluable. Aggressor squadrons like the 706th exist to ensure U.S. and allied aircrews are battle-tested before ever facing a real adversary. "Rockslide," with its unique paint scheme and mission profile, became one of the more recognizable F-16s in the aggressor fleet, a symbol of the silent yet critical role played by mock-combat experts in U.S. air superiority doctrine.
This 1:72 scale model with authentic camouflage, tail markings, and fine detailing from canopy to weapons pylons. A perfect addition for collectors interested in adversary trainers, USAF history, or those who appreciate the behind-the-scenes heroes of modern air combat readiness.
