Product Overview
The Nieuport 16 was an evolution of the Nieuport 11, reinforced and modified to fit a more powerful engine with a top speed of over 100 mph. It was armed with a single Lewis machine gun on its upper wing and, when used in ballon busting, with two sets of Le Prieur rockets. Each of these WW1 Wings of Glory Airplane Packs is a ready-to-play Nieuport 16 model, painted and assembled, 100% compatible with any other WW1 Wings of Glory game product. In each pack you will find all you need to play with the airplane: a special base, a flying stand, and a deck of Maneuver and skill cards. Aeronautique Militaire unit N 124 - best known as Escadrille La Fayette, in honor of the French hero of the American Revolutionary War - was composed mostly of American volunteers who soon became a great inspiration to many aspiring pilots.
