On a Dutch news site was said that a local journalist, at Fallujah were the plane crashed, told that the pilot died. Until now is this the only news what I read about it.

From: http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/ac/f-16.htm

Block 40/42 - F-16CG/DG - gained capabilities for navigation and precision attack in all weather conditions and at night with the LANTIRN pods and more extensive air-to-ground loads, including the GBU-10, GBU-12, GBU-24 Paveway laser-guided bombs and the GBU-15. Block 40/42 production began in 1988 and ran through 1995. Currently, the Block 40s are being upgraded with several Block 50 systems: ALR-56M threat warning system, the ALE-47 advanced chaff/flare dispenser, an improved performance battery, and Falcon UP structural upgrade.

Goose, Don't Feel bad,

For 3 years I tried to find the Turntables in the F-16DJ..Our WSO's were just as confused.

So why the "DJ" Disco Jammer?????

Dart Jammmer?
