F-16A BLOCK-15 Fighting Falcon

The General Dynamics (Lockheed Martin) F-16 started out as a light fighter, but has evolved into a formidable, up-gradable, low-maintenance multi-role fighter. 30 years later, it continues to be the main work-horse of the United States Air Force, and the fighter of choice for air-forces around the world.

111 Block 15 F-16s were purchased by the Pakistan Air Force in 1983. Unfortunately 71 of them were not delivered, and after a decade, the funds were returned in soy beans. This stretched the 40 F-16s thin over Pakistan's territory, but despite this they have served the PAF greatly, ensuring air superiority over the Indian Air Force until recently. Currently only 32 are in service and are still the most capable aircraft of the PAF.

26 used Block-15 F-16s and 18 new Block-52 F-16s are scheduled to be delivered to the PAF next year, however the unstable nature of the US-Pakistan relationship makes this doubtful.

This is one of the better models I have created. It comes with all the goodies (i.e. missiles, landing gear, etc..)
