F-16

The F-16 Fighting Falcon is a compact, multi-role fighter aircraft that is highly maneuverable and provides a relatively low-cost, high-performance weapon system for the United States and allied nations. The fighter has proven itself in air-to-air combat and air-to-surface attack. The F-16's maneuverability and combat radius exceed that of all potential threat fighter aircraft. It can locate targets in all weather conditions and detect low flying aircraft in radar ground clutter. In an air-to-surface role, the F-16 can fly more than 500 miles, deliver its weapons with superior accuracy, defend itself against enemy aircraft, and return to its starting point. An all-weather capability allows it to accurately deliver ordnance during non-visual bombing conditions. 

Rockwell Collins supplies our proven communications and display solutions for various models of the F-16. We provide the F-16 with our secure and flexible AN/ARC-210 family of radios including the Warrior, Talon, ARN-210 and ARN-153. These multimode voice and data communications systems cover Ultra High Frequency/Very High Frequency (U/VHF) in either normal, secure or jam-resistant modes through Line-of-Sight or Satellite Communications (SATCOM) links. Also found on various F-16's are the Rockwell Collins HF-9000 systems. This is our family of High Frequency (HF) solutions that provide data communication capability over HF modems, secure voice devices and data encryption devices. Our HF-9000F version provides the F-16 platform with a ruggedized and versatile solution to meet the most demanding environmental conditions.

Furthermore, Rockwell Collins' joint venture with Elbit Systems Ltd. of Israel, Vision Systems International (VSI), supplies the F-16 platform with the Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing System (JHMCS) display.
