Birds Eye View

[kursed]

A No 9 Squadron F-16 laden with bombs blasts off the Sargodha Runway for an anti-terrorist mission.

Can anyone identify the bomb-load on this bird? I don't see any precision guided weaponry (MK-84s, if my eyes serve me right).

Am I the only one who thinksthe eair intake has undergone considerable changes or is it me just drunk?

True I missed the change first time, intakes look more squarer, I also think the the mid section of the fuselag also looks slimmer (reduced dia) as compared to previous planes which look much fatter in appearence.

its 500lbs Mk82s....its not fully loaded, sometimes one see them dropping 12 Mk82s...depends on the mission.

It's a serial production machine so some changes are inevitable but I think you are confusing the intake shape since it has a FOD protection cover on it.
