The Rafale thread made me search for Block 52+ pics and I’m always amazed at how purpose full that plane looks, especially the F16D with conformals, which look deadly in israeli, emirati or greek colours.
I was wondering how it would stack up against a super hornet. Airframe wise buying a SH if you operate from land is heresy to me, so I would definately go for F15s or F16s if I was a country looking for a US fighter.
So the question is… is the later block F16 version still better than the SH in terms of kinetics, and is the F16 blk 60 capable of competing with a SH in terms of systems?
(don’t mind posting pics of block 52/60)

PS: this should be relatively flame free as the two planes are from the same country :diablo:
