Ejection seat flaps
Note the flaps are not high on the seat.
It is a standard ESCAPAC ejection seat without the seat cushion and survival kit installed in the seat pan thus making them look high.
The YF-16's used the ESCAPAC seats.
The FSD F-16's switched to the Stanley Stencil seats
Production F-16's switched to the MacDac ACES II seats.
