The missile carrying this F-16 is the new AIM-2000 (Iris-T).
A little bit better than the AIM-9X.
It was developed by the collaboration of Germany, Italy, Greece and Sweden. It is based on the Soviet Air to Air short range missile Vympel R-73 (NATO AA-11 Archer) which was found in large numbers as an armament on the MiG-29s of the former East Germany Air Force.
Fully capable with the F-16s JHMCS,
