Auto Credit Based on DALS's F-16 Fighting Falcon (Unarmed)
The General Dynamics F-16XL is a derivative of the F-16 Fighting Falcon, with a cranked-arrow delta wing.
It was originally conceived as a technology demonstrator, later entered in the United States Air Force's (USAF) Enhanced Tactical Fighter (ETF) competition but lost to the F-15E Strike Eagle.
Several years after the prototypes were shelved, they were turned over to NASA for additional aeronautical research.
Here it is one of my favorite F-16 Variants the XL it was a challenge to get the COM correct on this one but i managed it.
