Auto Credit Based on DALS's F-16 Fighting Falcon (Unarmed)

In 1993 Lockheed Martin proposed development of a new version of the venerable F-16.

This F-16X 'Falcon 2000' featured a delta-wing planform like that of the F-22; together with the fuselage stretch to accommodate the new wing design, the F-16X would have 80% more internal fuel volume.

The design also permitted conformal carriage of the AIM-120 AMRAAM. LM claimed the F-16X could be built for two-thirds the cost of the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet.

Another great variant of my F-16s Enjoy, Upvote and Comment.
