The F-16 Fighting Falcon, also known as the Viper, is a multirole fighter aircraft originally developed by General Dynamics for the United States Air Force. The F-16 is capable of reaching a maximum speed of Mach 2, or approximately 1,500 mph, at high altitudes. At lower altitudes, the maximum speed is limited to approximately 915 mph. The F-16's speed and maneuverability make it a highly effective combat aircraft.

The F-16 was first introduced into service in 1978 and has since been used by many countries around the world. Over 4,500 F-16s have been produced, making it one of the most widely used fighter aircraft in the world.
