Motley Fool: Lockheed Will Keep F-16 Flying With $8 Billion Sale to Taiwan
For the umpteenth year in a row, Lockheed Martin's F-16 remains the world's most popular fighter jet.
The manufacturer of everything from F-35 stealth fighters to Blackhawk helicopters to the venerable F-16, Lockheed Martin is the world's biggest pure-play defense contractor. And according to the data specialists preparing Flightglobal's 2019 World Air Forces report, 45 years after the F-16 Fighting Falcon first took flight, some 2,280 of Lockheed's F-16s are still flying around the globe -- 15% of all fighter planes in existence today.
And as we just found out, that number is about to get a little bit bigger.

WNU Editor: This fighter jet has clearly been a winner for Lockheed Martin.

The jet was designed with one engine to be cheap to produce yet hold its own. It was not designed to be as good as the F-15, but nonetheless hold its own.
Economy is very important in being prepared for war, preventing war, and winning war.
The F-16 was designed to fill the rank with a more affordable, but capable air frame.
JB,
You are trolling, false flag, or bat shit crazy.
This is the first and last time I am going to reply to you. No one takes you seriously, so why should I. That is why people for the most or all people leave you alone. I've watched nature films of lions running from small jackals. The lion is not hungry, jackal is not usually on the menu, usually is to small to bother as a meal and knows that it can smear that jackal, but runs anyway. It knows that the foaming at the mouth jackal is off. Something is wrong. The jackal has rabies and the lion doesn't really see that often or at all, but it knows that the jackal is odd, so it runs.
You are like that non the internet. I do not consider you Christian although you spout some mumbo jumbo.
Most people I believe think of you as comic relief or just ignore you as a nutter.
I'll leave you with one piece of advice. Read Sun Tzu, because you are clueless. For Sun Tzu the ultimate is being so good at war that you do not have to resort to violence.
Goof bye and Good luck. You are going to need it.
