LinkF-16SimDude, except for the 50 year old seat... NASA swapped the seats for a nice modern Mk. 16 from Martin-Baker, but the USAF is looking at upgrades on the Northrop Improved...

I was talkin' about the new instrument panel and HUD, but your point is well taken. Thanks.

Don't forget the new intakes and engines they're getting soon.

Do the new intakes mean it can takeoff and fly in the rain? Sorry Habu, a little Talon joke... Wink

I think the Talons are sweet airplanes, we were even trying to get one, but it was a money thing as you can imagine!

JR, there isn't a Talon pilot that I've talked to that didn't love flying that airplane. As for me, I'll do just about anything to get to fly one.
