KC-46A Pegasus tankao F-16
Boeing tanker passes first midair refueling test for Air Force
Citat:The Air Force said the tanker passed 1,600 pounds of fuel to an F-16. The new refueling boom is a rigid tube that telescopes out from the aircraft’s rear underbelly to feed jet fuel to other aircraft.

Bahrein razmatra da li da modernizuje postojece F-16 na standard V i da li da dokupi jos novih F-16 V.
Citat:Modernising Bahrain’s in-service fleet to the F-16V standard would include the integration of an active electronically scanned array sensor, already identified as Northrop Grumman’s scalable agile beam radar. With the US government, the progamme would also add precision-guided weapons, such as from Boeing’s joint direct attack munition series, and Lockheed’s Sniper targeting pod.
In parallel with the upgrade, the service could also acquire “17 or 18” new-build F-16Vs, Groesch says. These would differ through the installation of conformal fuel tanks, which he notes would enable the assets to operate with more weapons beneath the wing, in place of 370gal fuel tanks.
