About our F-16 news

Latest news on the F-16, a multirole fighter aircraft originally developed by General Dynamics (now Lockheed Martin) for the United States Air Force.

The F-16 is a single-engine, single-seat aircraft designed for air-to-air combat and ground attack missions. The F-16 is a highly versatile aircraft that can perform a wide range of missions, including air superiority, close air support, interdiction, and reconnaissance. It is equipped with advanced avionics, radar systems, and weapons systems, enabling it to engage targets both in the air and on the ground.

The US and its allies are reportedly planning to provide F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine and support training around them. President Joe Biden told G7 leaders that the US would join in efforts to train Ukraine’s pilots on fourth-generation fighter jets including the F-16s.
