2003年12月6日,洛克希德·马丁公司所属沃斯堡生产厂的试飞跑道上,一架身披银灰色迷彩的F-16F战斗机静静地停在跑道上,等待着实现第一次飞行。不久,首席试飞员史蒂文·巴特尔驾驶这架双座型飞机高速滑行后顺利升空,在大约50分钟的首次飞行中,对飞机的操纵品质和电子系统进行了初步评估。作为“战隼”家族的一名新成员,F-16E/F战斗机不仅承袭了前辈的主要优点,而且自身拥有独特优势,从而使年届30的F-16战斗机再次焕发出新的生命。今后几年,随着阿联酋空军逐步装备这种先进的多用途战斗机,中东地区又将出现一支不可小觑的空中力量。
December 6, 2003, Lockheed Martin owned Fort Worth plant test runway, a silver-gray camouflage F-16F fighter quietly parked on the runway, waiting for the first time flight. Shortly after the pilot test pilot Steven Battle approached the two-seat high-speed taxi and took off successfully, the aircraft’s handling quality and electronic system were initially evaluated in its first 50-minute flight. As a new member of the Fighting Falcon family, the F-16E / F not only inherits the major advantages of its predecessors, but also has its own unique advantages, so that the 30th F-16 fighter jets will rekindle a new life. In the coming years, as the UAE’s air force gradually upgrades its advanced multi-role fighter aircraft, another force in the Middle East will emerge.
