F-16 USAF Over Iraq Air Space

This is the badass F-16 USAF, the fighting falcon of United States Air Force while flying over Iraq air space. The picture shown the jet has completed its aerial refueling from KC-135 Stratotanker, during Iraq War back in 2008. Thanks to Master Sgt. Andy Dunaway for nice photo shoot. Anyway, the F-16 origin from 388th Fighter Wing at Hill Air Force Base in Utah.

This is the 'C' variant of F-16, the C manufactured in 1980s and was in Block 25 variant. The C is single-seat variant, while the F-16D is two-seat variant/tandem. Currently the F-16C variant have arrived to Block 52 variant which is the latest version of all. It installed with advanced avionics systems as well as heavy weapons, such as AIM-7 and AIM-120. The F-16 manufactured by General Dynamics, but since 1993, General Dynamics sold its aircraft manufacturing business to Lockheed Martin. Although F-16 is no longer sold to United States Air Force, but Lockheed Martin keeps on improving this aircraft for export market.
