Drag chute container?

 

[LegionnairE]

different engine which means different intake but thats about it

if that's the only difference you're seeing, you should see an eye doctor

fortunately- as a pilot, my vision is 20/20.

Unfortunately you decided to play the smartass role and wanted to be the know it all, the primary difference between the X2 and the X0 series of F-16 is the engine and intake. You wanted to display your internet supremacy by jerking off at the drag chute and different antenna arrangement. Hope it made you feel good about yourself

Come on dude, no need to get into these nitpicking arguments.
Tell us, is this news true that on 27.2.19 , Noaman Ali and Noaman Akram (Shaheed) both remained airborne for some 7 hours.

In this exercise, Turkish Pilots gets a flavor of J10C (& JF-17C), That could be One of the interesting point of this exercise as Turkey is looking for back-up options incase of non-availability or delayed availability of F-16s .............. anyone knowledgeable would like to comment please.

The F-16 cannot stay airborne for that long without air to air refueling

 

[siegecrossbow]

The F-16 cannot stay airborne for that long without air to air refueling

What if it carried external fuel tanks?

 

[Talon]

What if it carried external fuel tanks?

 

[Windjammer]

The F-16 cannot stay airborne for that long without air to air refueling

With Three external drop tanks would give an F-16 over 2600 Miles of ferry range ...cruising at say around 400 MPH....Will give the pilot over 6 hours of flying. ???

These Saudi F-15 SA are among 3 Types of AESA equipped 4.5th Generation aircrafts participating in Indus Shield 23: F15 SA, J10-C and JF-17C Block 3. Must be a great show of capabilities among various platforms participating including . F-16 Block 52s.

 

[Silicon0000]

Is India going to have F-15 ..........

Why the different grays used in J-10 & JF-17 vs other PAF fighters?
If this smog filled shot is any indication, the darker schemes blend in better
