The General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon is an American single-engine supersonic multirole fighter aircraft originally developed by General Dynamics for the United States Air Force (USAF). Designed as an air superiority day fighter, it evolved into a successful all-weather multirole aircraft with over 4,600 built since 1976. Although no longer purchased by the U.S. Air Force, improved versions are being built for export. In 1993, General Dynamics sold its aircraft manufacturing business to the Lockheed Corporation,[5] which became part of Lockheed Martin after a 1995 merger with Martin Marietta.[6] The F-16's key features include a frameless bubble canopy for enhanced cockpit visibility, a side-mounted control stick to ease control while maneuvering, an ejection seat reclined 30 degrees from vertical to reduce the effect of g-forces on the pilot, and the first use of a relaxed static stability/fly-by-wire flight control system that helps to make it an agile aircraft. The fighter has a single turbofan engine, an internal M61 Vulcan cannon and 11 hardpoints. Although officially named "Fighting Falcon", the aircraft is commonly known by the nickname "Viper" among its crews and pilots.\

SAMs be sweating just to clap a certain this plane during Package Q Strike
Very nice
I love F-16😆
@SkyboardAviation no no I know, I’m just sorry for being a jerk with my first comment.
@F8boa your good bro, im not trying to retaliate, just explaining
@SkyboardAviation yeah sorry, I was really mad at myself because of a test and I took it out by leaving a shitty comment. I apologize bro, great build.
@F8boa i tried to make it take longer to get off the runway because in real life fighter jets take longer than it usually does in sp. The reason the takeoff speed is so much higher than real life is the acceleration is much faster.
Realistic but doesn’t have enough lift to take off until ~820kph…
@FartResidue hope SP2 allows multicrew
@FartResidue no problem.
”Poggers”
