General-Dynamics F16 Falcon is American single-motor, multi-rooked lightweight fighter aircraft and storm soldiers. The studies on the F-16 project began in 1971 under the concern of General Dynamics (part of the Lockheed Martin giant in 1993) and a light multi-purpose hunter aircraft (LWF) competition for the US Air Force entered the competition. The YF-16 prototype first flew on February 2, 1974. A technical turning point was the use of a computerized electric radio flight control system; This system made it possible to reduce the wing and tail area and thus reducing the aircraft load. The weight of the whole plane. The F-16 was the first fighter aircraft in the world to use such a system. The first versions were largely made of aluminum alloys (approximately 83 %of the total structure), but over time they were replaced by composites. Different versions of F-16 are strengthened by three versions of the engines: Pratt-Whitney F-100-PW-200, General Electric F110-GE100 and Pratt-Whitney F-100-PW-2020. The "brain" of the routing system was the APG-66 radar, then replaced by the APG-68 (V) radar. It is worth noting that the YF-16 design is so successful that it not only won the LWF competition in the USA (in competing with the Northrop YF-17 aircraft) in the USA, but also a multi-rolled hundredth year contract. Warrior for European NATO countries. Their rivals were Dassault Mirage F.1 and Saab J-37 Viggen machines. F-16's mass production started in 1975. European NATO countries, where new aviation technologies are injection, also participated. The latest assembly was held in the USA, Belgium and the Netherlands. The first series F-16a Fighting Falcon was blown on 7 August 1978. This is an attack version that is intended for the F-16 to resist the ground targets. The F-16 also proved itself in the war with a series of air victory in the Battle of Lebanon (1982) and the desert storm operation (1991). By the end of the 20th century, more than 4,000 of this successful aircraft were produced. The F-16 had six basic versions marked as A, C, E (Single Seat) and B, D, F (two seats). Based on these six models, a large number of upgrades associated with the replacement of avionics, which are mostly marked as "blocks", have been created. F-16 has been serving in Poland aviation since 2006. The Polish Ministry of Defense decided that the F-16 would be the backbone of the modernized air force, and rejected the proposals from DESSAULT and SAAB, but in this case they were Mirrage F2000 and Jas-39 Grippen fighters. Of course, this is the highest amount offered by the American company under the so -called offset process. Technical Data: Maximum Speed: 2.170 km/h, climbing speed: 254 m/s, maximum ceiling 15.240 m, maximum range: 3.890 km, weapons: fixed - one 20 mm -barreled M61a -1 ball, hanging up to 9.275 kg.
