Background:
The F-16 Fighting Falcon was produced by General Dynamics who became Lockheed
who then merged with Martin Marietta to become Lockheed Martin. The F-16
entered service in January 1979 as a multi-role jet fighter that evolved into
an all-weather multi-role aircraft capable of sustaining 9-g turns. The F-16 is
relatively inexpensive to purchase and maintain so the U.S. and 25 other
countries added it to their inventory. The Fighting Falcon is referred to by
its pilots as the "Viper"; and will remain in USAF service until
2025.
From June 16th until 30th 2022 the 2022 annual Anatolian Eagle (AE-22) exercise
was held at the 3rd Main Jet Base Command in Konya, Turkey. The exercise was
attended by 6 international air forces using about 50 aircraft. This is similar
to the NATO and Tiger Meet of the Americas was carried out using opposing
forces in high threat situations. Attending this exercise from Pakistan was
F-16BM 84606 from the 11th Squadron (Arrows) that was delivered in December
1983 and on February 27, 2019 shot down an Indian Air Force Su-30.
