Hi guys, does anyone out there know if the UAE block 60 F-16`s will keep the grey scheme they were wearing at their roll out or will they change to a desert scheme?
Also does anyone know what greys are used on the UAE F-16 ie Federal Standard numbers.
Many thanks in advance. |

Sir:
With all the preparation carried out by the UAE and LM I doubt very much the colour was not planned and decided properly for its operational use. I do not believe a change of colour would happen now but years into the future. |

| Yes, that will probably be the operational scheme, but as of yet there hasn't been any FS #'s released. In fact, someone posted on the ARC, saying that apparently there aren't any FS numbers that match that rollout scheme. Too early to tell, I'd say just wait. |

Houston,
The same artist impression can be found in the photogallery on this site:
http://www.f-16.net/f-16_photos_album42.html
I tend to agree with F-16VIPER that it would be rather inefficient to go through all the trouble of painting an aircraft for the roll-out, and then having to change it to the definitive one.

Is there an echo in here??  |
