IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Ok so I messed up the planes again. This F-16 has a larger intake than it should. To fix this, enter the fuselage tweaker for the intake itself and change both forward bottom corners to circular and lower the part’s front height to 0.75. After that, change the intake’s rise to 0. Once that is completed, select the fuselage directly behind the intake itself, and change its rise to 0.5. This process must only be done with both normal Block-25 F-16s (I say normal as the process doesn’t have to be done for the Block-25 DemoBird or the QF-16 Block-25, both releasing soon).

Description

Block 25, the first of the F-16C/D series, made several changes to the airframes and their technologies. This includes the Westinghouse AN/APG-68 pulse-doppler radar and a more powerful engine, the Pratt & Whitney F100 PW-220E, which makes the plane more powerful than previous airframes.

The Airframe

F-16D 83-1180 began its service with the United States Air Force in 1984 at Luke Air Force Base. It would later be transferred to MacDill Air Force Base, where it would serve during the early 1990s. The plane was then sent to Toledo Air National Guard Base in Ohio, where it would serve until 1994. It was then sent to serve at Morris Air National Guard Base, near Tucson International Airport, until at least 2007. At an unknown moment, the plane was transferred to the United States Navy to serve as an aggressor trainer.
