Which F 16 is your favourite to fly?
-
Hi Folks,
I’m new to the F-16, and I’m trying to figure out the differences between all of the block versions of the F-16 and the MLU extensions, as I want to fly the most capable and multi-role capable F-16 (to include A2A, A2G and SEAD) and I was wondering which version of the F-16 you all like to fly?

f16c block 50 or 40

My favorites are the IAF F-16C Barak and the F-16D Barak (either block 30 or 40, doesn’t matter).
But I’m biasedhaving no MRM relying only on advanced heaters (python 4 and 5 in 4.33 are really very close to MRM) adds another level.
and having the more advanced JDAM modes, and SPICE available really boosts survivability on a strike mission. with GBU-15 (on the two seaters) is really satisfying (for me that is) -

I’m guessing you are Israeli?and having the more advanced JDAM modes, and SPICE available really boosts survivability on a strike mission. with GBU-15 (on the two seaters) is really satisfying (for me that is)
after a quick search, is SPICE a indigenous israeli Air-force guided bomb? or is it related to SEAD duties?

lol, my Sig should have been a dead give away? shouldn’t it?
SPICE can be used for DEAD (not to SEAD) as it lack the ability to strike Target Of Opertunity. you need to pre-program every possible target you might want to strike before take-off.
GBU-15 most definitely can be used for SEAD/DEAD.
