    Authentic
    , mint condition
    F-16 Viper
    Patch
    .
    Awarded to F-16 pilots after initial solo in the aircraft.
    The
    General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon
    is a single-engine
    supersonic
    multirole
    fighter aircraft
    originally developed by
    General Dynamics
    for the
    United States Air Force
    (USAF). Designed as an
    air superiority
    day fighter
    , it evolved into a successful
    all-weather
    multirole aircraft. Over 4,600 aircraft have been built since production was approved in 1976.
    Although no longer being purchased by the U.S. Air Force, improved versions are being built for export customers.
    In 1993, General Dynamics sold its aircraft manufacturing business to the
    Lockheed Corporation
    ,
    which in turn became part of
    Lockheed Martin
    after a 1995 merger with
    Martin Marietta
    .
    The Fighting Falcon's key features include a frameless
    bubble canopy
    for better visibility,
    side-mounted control stick
    to ease control while maneuvering, an ejection seat reclined 30 degrees from vertical to reduce the effect of
    g-forces
    on the
    pilot
    , and the first use of a
    relaxed static stability
    /
    fly-by-wire
    flight control system that helps to make it an
    agile
    aircraft. The F-16 has an internal
    M61 Vulcan
    cannon and 11 locations for mounting weapons and other mission equipment. The F-16's official name is "Fighting Falcon", but "Viper" is commonly used by its pilots and crews, due to a perceived resemblance to a
    viper
    snake as well as the Colonial Viper
    starfighter
    on
    Battlestar Galactica
    which aired at the time the F-16 entered service.
    In addition to active duty in the U.S. Air Force,
    Air Force Reserve Command
    , and
    Air National Guard
    units, the aircraft is also used by the
    U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds
    aerial demonstration team, and as an adversary/aggressor aircraft by the
    United States Navy
    . The F-16 has also been procured to serve in the air forces of 25 other nations.  As of 2015, it is the world's most numerous
    fixed-wing aircraft
    in military service. (Wikipedia)
