If you recall the original Block 10 F-16A post, you might recall that thing was pretty nice looking, but had horrible performance. I have gone in and cleaned up all the drag points and totally reworked the flight model to something a bit truer to the real Fighting Falcon. Additions include an actual afterburner, stations 3 and 7 for the bombs, and hidden brakes for more realistic flying behavior (loss of energy, speed in hard turns.) I debated retrofitting a cockpit with the 1.12 stuff, but decided to keep it stripped back and simple. I have also added actual markings too, loosely representing the 34th Fighter Squadron of the 388th Fighter Wing based at Hill AFB, Utah (who were, funny enough, the first to receive the Block One F-16A back in the late 70's-early 80's.) So yeah, this is much more satisfying than it had been before thanks to having the know-how to really bring out the potential on this one.
