Main goal here is to make sure that warbirds don't cost more than early jets, but this includes rebalancing of all aircraft.

"The F-16C is a single seat, single engine multirole fighter that was
|
|
developed in the 1970s. More than 4,500 units were manufactured and are operated
|
|
today by 26 countries where the aircraft performs numerous missions that include
|
|
air superiority, close air support, precision bombing, air defense suppression,
|
|
reconnaissance and more. Few other aircraft can match its versatility, maneuverability,
|
|
firepower, and huge production numbers.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nicknamed the Viper by its pilots, the F-16 was designed with a reclined seating
|
|
position for high G tolerance and a single-piece bubble canopy for exceptional visibility
|
|
and comfort. Its lightweight and powerful F-110-GE-129 engines provide a greater
|
|
than 1:1 thrust ratio.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Housed in the nose of the Viper is a multifunction APG-68(V)5 radar. The aircraft
|
|
can also be equipped with multiple sensors such as the LITENING targeting pod and
|
|
HARM Targeting System (HTS).
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Viper is armed for air-to-air combat with Sidewinders, AMRAAMs, and an internal
|
|
20mm 6-barrel Gatling gun. It can also be loaded with a wide range of air-to-ground
|
|
weapons that include general purpose bombs, rockets, canister munition, Mavericks,
|
|
laser- and GPS-guided bombs, and more"
