The F-16C Fighting Falcon is a multi-role aircraft employed by many countries in the Ace Combat series. The F-16C is a common aircraft and has many variants in the Ace Combat series. It can carry a variety of air to air and air to surface weapons, making it a highly versatile fighter.
Overview
The General Dynamics (now Lockheed Martin) F-16C Fighting Falcon is a lightweight, single engine, high-performance multi-role fighter; it is serving numerous air forces world-wide and has spawned several variants. The F-16 Fighting Falcon has become one of the most successful western fighter programs of the 20th century. Genesis of the successful F-16 fighter/attack aircraft lies in reaction to severe deficiencies in US fighter design revealed by the Vietnam War.
Following the success of the small, highly maneuverable F-86 Sabre day fighter in the Korean War, US fighter design changed to emphasize maximum speed, altitude, and radar capability at the expense of maneuverability, pilot vision, and other attributes needed for close combat. This trend reached its extremity in the F-4 Phantom II, which was the principal fighter for both the USAF and Navy during the latter part of the Vietnam War. While fast with excellent range, armament, and power, it was not very maneuverable, lacked an internal cannon on early variants, and early on used unreliable missiles, such as the AIM-4 Falcon.
General Dynamics went out to change that. McDonnell Douglas built the F-15 Eagle as the literal successor to the F-4, improving on every element. GD built a plane that was remarkably similar in design to the F-15, but rather with one ventral intake rather than two side ones, a single engine, wingtip missile stations, and general downsizing. The YF-16 prototype beat out the YF-17 (which, ironically, was overhauled and adopted by the Navy in favor of a navalized F-16 as the F-18.) The F-16 was light, maneuverable, had a good range and armament, including an M61 20mm Gatling Cannon. It has become the standard fighter of the USAF and countless other countries. Lockheed Martin has assisted in the development of dozens of variants and spin-offs.
