Lockheed Martin F-16E/F Block 60 Desert Falcon Variant
The Lockheed Martin F-16E/F Desert Falcon is the United Arab Emirates Block 60 single-seat and two-seat branch of the F-16 Fighting Falcon. Lockheed Martin identifies it as the most advanced F-16 version of its era, while GE Aerospace identifies the F110-GE-132 as the engine selected for 80 Block 60 aircraft. Its UAE-specific avionics, configuration, and high-thrust propulsion boundary make it a materially distinct F-16 variant.
