Description
The F-16C Fighting Falcon is a jet fighter of the United States Air Force.
This aircraft was created to support the F-15 Eagle.
The F-16C evolved from the F-16A, with increased armament capacity and
stronger electronic components.
The new air-to-air missile AIM-120, which can now be used from the C type, is also a major feature.
By using this missile, it became possible to attack many enemy aircraft at the same time.
This F-16C is also deployed at Misawa Air Base in Aomori Prefecture in Japan, and
can be seen at air shows around the country.
