IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Ok so I messed up the planes again. This F-16 has a larger intake than it should. To fix this, enter the fuselage tweaker for the intake itself and change both forward bottom corners to circular and lower the part’s front height to 0.75. After that, change the intake’s rise to 0. Once that is completed, select the fuselage directly behind the intake itself, and change it’s forward height (or aft height for the intake) to 0.5. This process must only be done with both normal Block-25 F-16s (I say normal as the process doesn’t have to be done for the Block-25 DemoBird or the QF-16 Block-25, both releasing soon).

Description

Block 25, the first of the F-16C/D series, made several changes to the airframes and their technologies. This includes the Westinghouse AN/APG-68 pulse-doppler radar and a more powerful engine, the Pratt & Whitney F100 PW-220E, which makes the plane more powerful than previous airframes.

The Airframe

F-16C 83-1140 entered service with the United States Air Force in late February 1995 at Luke Air Force Base in Arizona. The plane would serve at Luke for most of its lifetime, until 2010, where it was seen in the AMARG at Davis-Monthan Air Force. In 2019 it was sent to Cecil Field in Florida for conversion to a QF-16 target drone. It is still operating to this day.
