The rise and rise of F-16 upgrades
Article Abstract:
The US Air Force (USAF) and F-16 operators from Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway and Portugal are upgrading the capabilities of their combined fleet of 1,000 fully interoperable fighters. Upgrading Common Configuration Implementation Program (CCIP) F-16C/Ds and Mid-Life Update (MLU) F-16A/Bs would provide a high degree of commonality in hardware and software, with attendant benefits in logistics support costs, training, operational flexibility and future upgrades.
