The F-16 Fighting Falcon, one of the most successful multirole fighters in aviation history, revolutionized modern air combat with its lightweight design and exceptional maneuverability. First flown in 1974, it was a single-engine, single-seat fighter featuring relaxed static stability and fly-by-wire controls. Capable of exceeding Mach 2 and pulling 9-g maneuvers, the F-16 measures just over 49 feet in length with a 32-foot wingspan. Originally developed by General Dynamics, production continues today under Lockheed Martin.
