    Fun fact; the official name of the F-16 is still the Fighting Falcon. It hasn't changed.
    It was commonly called Viper by F-16 pilots because they thought it looked like the Viper fighters in the original Battlestar Galactica.

    • @SternLX
      @SternLX 2 ปีที่แล้ว +32

      Yup, having spent 12 years in the USAF supporting F-16's from late 80's through the 90's, I commonly heard the Pilots refer to them as Vipers still. On paper from General Dynamics however it was the F-16 Viper during development and testing phase(the YF-16). An internal Code name of sorts. The "Fighting Falcon" part was added later by USAF PR Dept and it stuck.

    • @TomBrady2316
      @TomBrady2316 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      The F-16 has a variant named the Viper that was shown off in 2012 by LM. It's the F-16V. That's what this plane is in the video. It has better avionics and speed to name a few things.

  • @axeyouaquestion33
    @axeyouaquestion33 2 ปีที่แล้ว +455

    I personally think Fighting Falcon was a dope name. We already have an attack heli named Viper and a sports car with the same name. Fighting Falcon was a little more unique imo

    • @jaxastro3072
      @jaxastro3072 2 ปีที่แล้ว +50

      Even just the Falcon would have been cool. Imma agree with you that Viper fits the AH-1Z much more. Just go watch a video of a falcon flying through dense trees at high speed, tell me that is not a perfect fit for the F16

    • @ChristianNelsonn
      @ChristianNelsonn 2 ปีที่แล้ว +44

      The past tense is unnecessary since no one changed the plane's name. It's still officially the Fighting Falcon.
      Viper is an unofficial nickname given by early F-16 pilots because they thought it looked like the fighters (Viper Mk.I) in Battlestar Galactica.

      ​@@ChristianNelsonn Still referred to as the viper by todays pilots as well, not just early ones. Also not just battlestar galactica, but the nose section and that unstable body, pilots say it looks like a snake rearing its head to strike. Falcons a cool name, but definitely not as unique as one might think. Pretty much any aviation named after a bird is really cliche. F15 "eagle". "Thunderbirds". "The Falcons of Russia". A4 "Skyhawk." The list goes on. All legendary planes, but thats not the point.
      I'd say the viper gives the plane character. Distinguishable and unique amongst fixed wings, like the phantom or the tomcat. It sounds quick, deadly, clever, and efficient. Just like how their pilots fight in them IRL.

    • @d0ppler77
      @d0ppler77 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    The F-16 has an EPU, so you can glide for 10 extra minutes with it on, if that answers your question

    • @Danlovestrivium
      @Danlovestrivium 2 ปีที่แล้ว +75

      Ackchyually... You are correct, the EPU will power the aircraft for about 10 minutes. However, while the aircraft is in flight, the emergency power system is using bleed air along with hydrazine (and nitrogen) in order to provide power to the aircraft. This greatly extends the amount of emergency power time the aircraft has. However, if hydraulic pressure drops down too far, the EPU will increase the amount of H-70 it uses in order to generate hydraulic pressure and electricity to maintain flight. If the EPU was running on H-70 alone, it would be about 10 minutes otherwise, while in air, there is much, much longer time. There are numerous reasons the aircraft may have to fall back onto emergency power, not just running out of fuel. So the system is designed to allow power in other ways while still in the air without having to worry solely on a 10 minute fuel tank.
      With that said, Drewski here probably caused a thermal decoupling between the main power generator and the engine by running it out of fuel. The fuel provides cooling to the transfer case and once it gets too low and no longer provides enough cooling, it heats up pretty quickly. In order to save the expensive parts from catastrophic failure, there is a coupler that will separate the drive shaft connecting the two systems by melting above a certain temperature. Great job by the engineers for creating that setup. But the maintenance guys are gonna be pissed!!

      @@Yonada well, first thing, Id reccomend is, focus on BVR air-to-air first. Knowing rwr, aim120 and tws radar modes. The most basic things for long range engagements. Then you study missile defence and dogfighting at last.
      Cos you dont need to learn dogfighting if they destroy you before that.

    Hey Drew! If you like planes that aren't so personality lacking, the F-5E is a great one to pick up. Would probably be up your alley, it's always been fun whenever I've flown it. However, take it into a cold war lobby rather than all planes.

    The tail hook on air force fighters isnt actually intended for landing on carriers. Its an entirely different design mostly used for emergency landings on runways and engine runs so the plane doesnt drive right into a building

  • @theflightchannel7840
    @theflightchannel7840 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    What you should actually do with the F-16 is fly really, really high, and shoot down at your enemies, due to the fact that your missles have higher performance at thinner air. Plus you look down on all the people in the mountains.

    If you like the f16 you should definitely try the jf17. It’s got some f16 features mixed with Chinese and civilian parts and the amount of control you have from the hotas is awesome. Also the sd-10’s it fires out ranges the aim-120’s and have a decent hit probability. Would definitely check it out

      Word, Ace Combat games are great (and Project Wingman is good enough to be counted as a honorary member of that series anyday), they're kind of like the perfect action movie plane game counterpart to the realistic simulation of DCS.
