The F-16C Block 40 "Night Falcon" was introduced in 1989 with improved capabilities at night and in all weather, along with the LANTIRN navigation and targeting pods. Sixty Block 40 aircraft (30 each C/D) were delivered to the Israel Air Force in the early 1990s under the Peace Marble III FMS program. They install proprietary electronics in all of their aircraft (note the extension in the tail root below the rudder). IDFAF F-16Cs were first used in combat in 1988 for counter-terrorism operations in Lebanon.
I could not find many photos of serial number 527, so the camo is not entirely accurate, but the base pattern is mostly the same across different F-16s.

dam, that's such a beauty
@AshdenpawTG22 yes it's a guided bomb hitting its target
@Eggplant the second photo…
@AshdenpawTG22 this plane is over 32 years old so I'm afraid not
Good timing bro
The plane i'm grinding for in War Thunder. Amazing Plane!
@Eggplant
That's why I fly the Tomcat ;)
And don't take that comment as an insult, just pitching in my two cents.
@LoneSpaceGaming stupid computers controlling everything. If I want full flaps at mach 2 I should be able to. Thx for the info though <3
Just me being me whenever I see someone make an afterburner;
In most aircraft, the afterburner detent is at about 80% throttle. I don't really care for having an action group for it, but I'll let it slide.
And for rEaLIsm, the F-16's flaps are controlled automatically. They go down with the gear.
Looks incredible!
@asteroidbook345
that is actually funny.
We found it. Obama's last name.

Lovely!
I'm not able to play it (probably wouldn't even run on my Mac), but it looks marvelous.
Barak obamna (joke don’t ban me)
Fun fact: the word “barak” means lightning in Hebrew. Very nice plane, too!
I hope this comment section will be peaceful.
