Moving on, the first private F16 has flown in the USA and will be the first of a fleet of 29 Vipers that will be used for training against the US Military.

There's an interesting video on DESERT PHOENIX which covers the regeneration process and follow-on support agreement with the Israeli company Golden Number Solutions who already provide maintenance/logistics support to the A-4N fleet. Apart from the known technical IDF tech mods it gives an insight into the fact that these aircraft retain the as delivered AN/APG-66v1, original HUD and likely original cockpit too.
