Yes, buy as many as you can. But are you sure they will allow it?

Correct - more like buy 1 and get 3 old ones as 1/3 price.

Anyone got $8.5 Million stashed somewhere 'cause this F-16 can be yours...

According to its specs, it includes AN/APG-66(V)2 pulse doppler radar, a night vision-compatible cockpit, a data-bus for guided weapons and a joint helmet mounted cueing system.

Its listed maximum speed is Mach 2.05 at 40,000 feet, or roughly 1,570 miles per hour.

For the price tag, i'd be good for spares...

Oh BC...
Sorry bro. Kabhi akal ko patahar par jatay hain. In my case, pori-ki-pori truck ke bajri gir gaee.

I had forgotten to attach the link at the bottom. Check it out again (-courtesy of TheDrive)

Aik tou kum-bhakt hp Printer nahe kay Saddar say ja-kay utha lain. Aur moceebat owned by a private US Firm.

When you asked can anyone buy it...? The answer is not civilians like us.

Pretty much all the Terms & Conditions are applied in terms of purchase from the US State Dept./Congress.

The only difference is the price tag. The US Govt. has a hefty tag on their own ex-USAF jets.
2 aircraft are available. They are ex jordanian f-16's.
According to TheDRIVE, they have a total of Three.

"The primary Viper being listed was built in 1980, but it has been enhanced along the MLU roadmap and has modern features found on many front-line Vipers today. This includes being setup for Link16 data-link and Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System (JHMCS), a data-bus for modern guided weapons and other stores, a night-vision compatible cockpit, and so on. The Viper still has its AN/APG-66(V)2 pulse doppler radar, which is a very important feature that we will get to in a moment. It has also received Falcon STAR (Structural Augmentation Roadmap) that will allow it fly to at least 8,000 hours. The jet currently has 6,000 hours on its airframe, so there are many, many years of flying life left in it—I would estimate 10-15 years and that could be potentially be extended further.

The jet has an asking price of $8.5M and the other two have a similar starting place for negotiations. In addition, any potential sale could also include spare parts, training, and simulators. So, if an operator wanted the entire F-16 end-to-end package, it seems like it could be worked into a deal at additional cost."

In a way the end to end package would be around USD400-500 mil. PAF procured a squadron of ADF fighters from Jordan at 2.5billion USD. This deal is expensive comparatively.
