i think only 3 or 4 of them would be upgraded in Texas, USA.
test batch of sorts...i could be wrong
the only thing the yanks (LM) are doing is supplying part of the kits.....TAI of Turkiye is doing the upgradation works, as they are licensed under the Lockheed Martin to do so
well come back imran bhi really nice to see u came backyes its clear sir from day one and proved after f-16 images in TAI . but we have to take care only USA and bring back jets from them ASAP they change there minds like weather in muree
How does the F16 qualify as "high tech?" It hasn't been in use by the United States for a long time, you are talking about a plane that originally came out in the 70s. Somehow I don't think the US is going to be too concerned about losing any "secret technologies" from a plane design that is older than most of the people on this forum...
Take the Block 60.... has technologies that 5th gen birds possesHow does the F16 qualify as "high tech?"
You got to be kidding me? Ever heard of the USAF?It hasn't been in use by the United States for a long time,
Yes, and it would be wrong of you to assume that it hasn't changed.you are talking about a plane that originally came out in the 70s.

I don’t understand why you decided that F-16 is no longer used by America. If you don’t consider USAF thunderbirds & US Navy etc as American then you got serious national/ geographical problems.
The country flag you are showing is using this aircraft in large numbers... The F-16 block 50+ and 60 are not a 70s era plane my dear, they a 4.5 generation planes. I was hoping you knew better. talking more like an Indian than someone from Israel.
F-16 is the work horse and front line fighter of many air forces in the world from east to west. If your 70s era taunt is to be considered then it makes the F-15 to fall from grace too although its current version can make a mince meat of any European or Russian jet that would be fielded against it.
by the way dont worry about it.

1) Thunderbirds are US military forces? I guess if you consider doing tricks in the air at national fairs a military strike you could say that...
2) The F16 has been improved in design over the years, but overall the plane is not cutting edge at all. It still has the same overall design, hence my comments.
3) I wasn't taunting the F16, I'm just saying that the plane itself/technology used in it is not anywhere near cutting edge. It's not as though the US sold it's new JSF to Pakistan, which is a plane that has technology that is still secretive. That was the point I was making.
How do you explain this:
Pakistani pilots flying modernised versions of the 1970s-vintage F-16 Falcon fighter have beaten the RAF's brand-new Eurofighter Typhoon superfighters during air combat exercises in Turkey, according to a Pakistani officer.
RAF Eurofighter Typhoons 'beaten by Pakistani F-16s' [printer-friendly] ? The Register
l
1988 May 17 - PAF F-16s shoot down two Russian Su-22s
over Parachinar area during Afghan war.
1988 August 4 - PAF F-16 shoots down Russian Su-25 in
Miranshah area during Afghan war.
1988 September 12 - PAF F-16s shoot down two intruder Russian
Mig-23s during Afghan war
1988 November 1 - PAF F-16 shoots down an intruder Russian
Su-22 over Tull area during Afghan war
Imagine if our Block 15 could do all this, then what can Block 52 do?
This is from Pakistan's side. Look at F-16 kills from different Air forces. F-16 is battle proven!!
