Both the F-16C Block 50, and the F-16E Block 60, are the both designated the Flying Falcon. Or the Israeli "Desert Falcon."

Duplex is incorrect. Viper and Fighting Falcon are exactly the same thing. When the F-16 was introduced the airmen who operated it, joked that it looked like "Viper." The fighter from the television show Battlestar Galactica. General Dynamics and later Lockheed never made an aircraft which they called Viper. The unofficial nickname kind of stuck and worked its way into the vernacular of the Fighter enthusiast.

really the only differences are that the f-16 viper is a block 50, or 60 model, meaning that the engine is more power ful. but their both sort of the same. kind of like the F-18 HORNET, AND THE F-18 SUPER HORNET, ONE IS STRONGER AND MORE ADVANCED THAN THE OTHER.

That is the most beautiful jet in the world in my opinion. VIPERS!

I still dont like it... At least on the design concept, I prefer the F-15 design.

I wonder if this would out perform the F15. I went up in a Mig 15 a few years back and pulled 7.5-8Gs and I tell ya I was so tired after the flight!
