RAF 16 Squadron was formed in France in May 1915. The Sqn also participated in World War II and the Persian Gulf War. From 1991 to 2005, the unit operated SEPECAT Jaguar GR3s from RAF Coltishall. As 16 (Reserve) Sqn, it was the RAF�s Operational Conversion Unit for the Jaguar. In 1994, Jaguar GR.3 XX116 was repainted in an overall matt black colour scheme to commemorate the Sqn�s 80th Anniversary the following year when the Black Cat participated in air shows in the UK and Europe. No. 16 Squadron was formally disbanded at RAF Coltishall on 11 March 2005.

This model is constructed using very little plastic and feels surprisingly heavy. Both the fin and elevators are die-cast metal, a feature that is unusual in most similar models. Among the model's notable features are movable elevators that rotate in unison, simulated stainless-steel heat shielding around the engine exhaust and the separately applied v-shaped transparent lens cover on the nose camera. The snug-fitting large, metal landing gear installs quickly and easily for ground display. The mold allows for the single-seat and the long, slender two-seat trainer variants to be produced.
