Aircraft And Airmen From Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, N.C., Arrive To Barksdale AFB, La., Evacuating

Up close and personal

General Dynamics F-16E Block 60

@lockheed-martini They gave it that designation to get fighter pilots interested in flying it (And it worked). The plane, although a bomber, handled like a fighter as well

Beautiful

Why the falcon? Record wise there are better fighter jets namely the eagle.

Lol. I know there are technically better fighters in the world. After I was adopted I went from living on the streets to living on air bases in different parts of Asia. I went from living in fear every day of my life- to living in the magical world known as the Air Force lol. Every base we lived on had an F-16 unit (and usually A-10) so they became this comfort thing for me.I have this uncanny knack of making people walk out of my life but that dang jet was always there. Through friends pcsing and leaving, people walking out, divorces in my “new” family, deaths, and dad being deployed or on TDY- the only thing that never left was my F-16. I’ve never wanted to be a pilot- but something about that jet is just engrained into my DNA and it’s always felt like home. I know it makes me “odd” but to me it will always be the greatest fighter on the planet and always be “home”.

It’s so dumb it’s funny

Have you ever wondered why old people love to sit in the park and feed the birds? Well... I did and I found out. To watch the fireworks. (Birds explode when they are fed rice)

Isn't she purty?

😂😂

I believe the US Military should invest their time in designing a jet similar to the Su-47 Berkut.

I've done a few drawings myself and I think it could work
