Wow clean aircraft and great shots ! Fabulous job from the PoAF and the photographer on capturing these birds - the canopy reflections on the first one make the jet look so "space"
Many people don't like the block52+ and 60 with their bumps and spines, I love them though - makes the airplane look a lot meaner ! |

| These pictures made wonder, I think I've only ever seen dual's with CFT's. Can single seat falcons carry CFT's and if so does anyone have any pictures of those? |

They just started flying with CATM-120's. No LGB's spotted yet. |

Damn good looking jets. It must be nice to go from a Mig-21 to a F-16.  |

| For the record: Single seat vipers also can be modified to carry the CFT's. The test airframe at Eglin was actually a single seat block 40. |

They ordered 18 CFT sets (36 tanks). The original plan was to provide 6 sets for each of 3 Viper Tactical Squadrons. Now they decided to install CFTs on D models first. I am personally looking forward to see the CFTs on C model, but it looks like we need to wait for it. |

Dan here is C model with CFT (Not a "Polished" one but a Blk 60 UAE viper.) http://www.airliners.net/open.file?id=1 ... id=1193152
Cheers.
So we got blk 40 test airframe, Singapore's & Greece's blk 52, The IAF Soufa and UAE's blk 60 did I miss something? |
