    The best planned version of the Falcon is called F 21, which as you mentioned is on offer to India..... But I think the best Ally to sell it to will be Taiwan, as the F 21 will be a great jump in capacity from the block 62 F 16s....

    Why does every fighter aircraft fanboy and fangirl love the F-16? "Cause it's like a scooter with about 30K pounds of thrust that can climb like WTF and turn on a dime. Compared to other Gen 4 fighters, the F-16 is tiny, but as capable. In everybody's fantasy world it's like you could have one in your driveway.

      F-16 first, then once they have air superiority possibly A-10's (but i find the A-10 to often be more of a hinderance due to the gun and on the A-10a version especially causing a lot of friendly fire by accident, i am not sure sending them is a good idea, they are cool though don't get me wrong)

    Ok who's with me here....I can't figure out what was wrong with simply calling this plane General Dynamics F-16 "The Falcon" as it was originally years ago and then suddenly it had to be the "FIghting Falcon" like it was a College Football Team from Indiana. THE FALCON sounds cool the Fighting Falcon is really redundant because yes this plane fights stuff...we already know that because its a fighter jet. Shaking my head at naming conventions these days
