F-16A MLU M4 Fighting Falcon of the Royal Norwegian Air Force. The MLU M4 updates introduces a software tape enabling the aircraft to carry and deliver the latest air to ground munitions like the JDAM. In addition to the already advanced and highly capable AIM-120 AMRAAM, the super agile IRIS-T short range air-to-air missile has been introduced, replacing the AIM-9L Sidewinder. The Pantera targeting pod makes a new dimension in Air to Ground missions used together with the new HMCS (Helmet Mounted Cueing System). The Pylon Integrated Dispenser System has the ALQ-162 ECM pod built-in and complements ALQ-131 ECM pod, carried on the centre line. PIDS also enables carriage of more chaff, housed in the pylon.
This model includes special Norwegian modifications to the basic F-16 like the drag chute compartment, night interception search light and a typical RNoAF weapon loadout of AMRAAM's, IRIS-T's, GBU-12's, PIDS and ALQ-131. The VC has been rebuild for better refresh rate. Reworked flight dynamics and new AB, vapor and exhaust smoke effects finish the package.
