F-16XL

The F-16XL is an Attacker variant of the F-16C Fighting Falcon. It features a cranked-arrow delta wing design, and can engage ground targets with speed and power, typically at a cost to its mobility.

History
According to some accounts, during the A World With No Boundaries insurgency, Galm Team encountered the Osean Wizard Squadron over Area B7R, Belka. During the battle, four members of Wizard Squadron used F-16XLs as a distraction from the other four members, who were utilizing stealth YF-23As. All of the units were shot down by Galm Team.

Description "A heavily modified version of the F-16. The main wing has been changed to a cranked-arrow delta wing and it has the largest weapon carrying capacity among the F-16 aircraft. It features improved stability in low speed ranges and its abilities as both an attacker and a bomber have also been improved. The aircraft competed with the F-15E in the Enhanced Tactical Fighter (ETF), a programme that was conducted by the United States Air force. Unfortunately, the aircraft was not adopted and is now used as a subject of flight research in research institutions."
