      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?

          My favorites are the IAF F-16C Barak and the F-16D Barak (either block 30 or 40, doesn’t matter).
          But I’m biased 🙂

          having 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)

            Haha!
            I’m guessing you are Israeli?

            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.
