The F-16 Fighting Falcon is, without exaggeration, a legendary airplane. We can say the pinnacle of world fighter aviation of the 80-90s of the last century. When talking about the F-16, you often have to repeat for the first time. For the first time, a serial fighter aircraft had a maximum speed of two Machs. It was the first time the thrust-to-weight ratio of a fighter exceeded one. For the first time, the maximum flight altitude was 58,000 feet - the limit of near space. For the first time, an electric remote control system was used on a fighter.
