Original credit goes to Authros. I don't know why it didn't upload as a successor, but this is a direct edit of his original save file.

"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."

VTOL up for landing gear.

    @PlanesOfOld I changed it to the F-16XL which is a delta-wing tech demonstrator. The original one Authros made was just a standard F-16.

    @Authros I don't know why, but it didn't mark this as a successor to your plane. So I'm tagging you to notify you I uploaded this so you'll know I gave you credit.
