Nothing Can Kill the US New Super F-16 Fighter After Upgrade 6th Generation
The F-16V (Viper), also referred to as the F-16 Block 70/72, is the latest variant of the F-16 Fighting Falcon fourth-generation multi-role fighter aircraft manufactured by Lockheed Martin. The Viper integrates advanced capabilities as part of an upgrade package to better inter-operate with fifth-generation fighters, including the F-35 and the F-22.
The fighter jet can be deployed in the suppression of enemy air defences missions, air-to-ground and air-to-air combat and deep interdiction and maritime interdiction missions.

Still Gen 4.5 … no thrust vectoring or stealth. It has all the other bells and whistles.
The rules of engagement are business. Whether the US has better military tech is irrelevant. Because the US cannot (refuses to do so) compete with China in business, they will soon be selling all that tech to them.
The problem for the US is it is not buying the Block 72 F-16's being sold to foreign countries. Our F-16's in the US Air Force are woefully behind the technology power curve.
So just to be clear, we are selling more advanced F-16's to foreign countries than our Air Force has today.
