If they get those mods then yes, the Top Aces’ F16s will be a formidable platform. The if is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence. Also, they’ve got to be contracted for those mods to be of any use. Equally, the baseline Draken F16s are better and will be able to accept the same mods.

one thing is for sure, it’s going to be an interesting next few months to see where this all goes.
